This was so speedy, but I enjoyed the theme and having a break on some of the Wednesday trickier puzzles. Had a couple of the clues I didn't bother with and relied on crosses, but most of them were cleverly done. Lovely spring theme fit for the sprouting leaves and blossoms!
This puzzle made me hungry. Need to wiggle down to the pantry, I reckon!
@Mark DelGiudice I'm still unsure of what HGT even is? I got it from the crosses. I feel silly, and lost, even though I now have the context clues.
@SN I struggled with this one too and wasn't familiar. Grateful to the folks illuminating what it is though!
@Khabib Nurmagomedov It's also sometimes called Gao (general gaos chicken) in the region I live now. I had to adjust to that after first moving here!
@Nick I didn't love this either. Was a head scratcher since it's not direct, and I relied on the crosses to fill in, then hope it was the intended answer. And if you have to perform the mental gymnastics of applying the transitive property to make a clue work, I'm not sure it was an ideal fit. But we got there, so it worked eventually. It was overall enjoyable.
