By MOOK Scenic Spots Home | Compiled Report
 
To celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, Breeze Supermarket and convenience store 7-ELEVEN have launched a variety of zongzi from renowned hotels and time-honored meat zongzi brands.

This year, Breeze Supermarket is highlighting the seafood meat zongzi — Cheng Yun’s “Unagi Grilled Eel Zongzi Gift Box.” Made with glutinous rice, fried shallots, dried shrimp, shredded mushrooms, and shredded pork stir-fried to perfection and steamed into fragrant, chewy Taiwanese-style rice, it features eel from a professional fish farm, slow-cooked in a teriyaki glaze until tender and flavorful. The chewy rice pairs beautifully with the soft, savory eel in this intricately prepared, five-star seafood zongzi that’s a crowd favorite.

Zhunan Nostalgic Meat Zongzi’s “Imperial Trout & Salmon Zongzi” selects top-grade Hokkaido scallops and trout salmon, stir-fried in a special sauce over high heat. It offers a rich, multi-layered texture and the aromatic taste of traditional handmade flavors, delivering a whole new taste experience.

The Breeze Mall exclusive brand Shanghai Teahouse presents the “Dragon Boat Festival Love Gift Box,” featuring a full family set, Chaozhou red bean zongzi, and vegetarian grain zongzi. Each variety shines — the savory ones are intensely flavorful, while the sweet ones are fragrant without being cloying.

Trine&zen’s debut “Italian Red Wine Beef Rice Zongzi” blends Western ingredients with Eastern presentation. Italian rice and pasta are combined with red wine beef and shaped like zongzi, infusing the simple rice-pasta mix with the fresh aroma of bamboo leaves. It’s then topped with a 72-hour simmered beef bone sauce for an elevated flavor profile.
