Pure Speculation
Maybe some strange seafood as they visited Cheung Chau
e.g. Shrimp Paste
or
Local Snacks in Mong Kok or Tsim Sha Chui
e.g. Stinky Tofu

omg i am so excited that TAR finally have a food challenge in the food paradise  :hearts:

Don't be surprised if that quote is just an offhand comment they are using for the title. Someone might just say that after they discover where they are headed.

It would only be Kat if the Chinese food involved meat and it was a Detour task or a regular Route Info (unlikely).  If it was a Roadblock, Nat could do it since Kat's a vegetarian.  But I doubt it's Nat, Brook or Claire either.

Just joking, but why would she refuse to eat meat now when she did not in another leg. If Nat would do the RB to help her out it would make sense, but  :whever: it doesn't matter.

There's no proof of anything until we see a promo or commercial.

Actually, it could be a random comment of a Racer taken out of context. (Show's been known to do that in the past.) That won't be clearer until there's more to work with than just the title.
