For consumers in Hong Kong, the new 'McDonald's Toastie' is an exciting addition to the McCafe menu.
This new sandwich is a grilled cheese recipe filled with deliciously gooey mac and cheese. The McDonald's Toastie is available in two varieties; the Bacon Macaroni & Cheese Toastie and the Corn & Cheese Champignon Toastie. American fans of Korean cuisine will recognize cheese corn as a popular side dish at Korean BBQ restaurants. McDonald's Hong Kong already features a ham and cheese grilled cheese sandwich on its menu so these light bites make for a fun limited edition menu item.
McDonald's menus vary geographically, but the new toasties would be a great addition to the restaurant's North American product offering.
