Ask me what to do in Hong Kong and my auto response will be EAT. Or even better, do a food hunt, especially Hong Kong had gotten so expensive that I can barely shop. Here is where this Hong Kong Food Guide comes in, listing the food we had tried in a recent trip by […]
SOLO Mall at Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong
Third trip in Hong Kong, visiting shopping malls like Langham, Elements alike has became dull and I was already starting to look for other options. This time around, I found the street markets quite welcoming but jinxed by the unforgiving heat. The other shopping option, of course, came naturally as Solo Mall at Tsim Sha Tsui. […]
Charterhouse Causeway Bay @ Hong Kong
Located between Wan Chai and the shopping Mecca of Causeway Bay, within easy reach of Causeway Bay MTR station, sits the rather stylish Charterhouse. This hotel is popular with business travelers due to its proximity to Hong Kong’s financial district. We were shown to S Signature rooms during the visit. Rooms are well executed, spacious […]
Dragon Center 西九龍中心 @ Sham Shui Po, Hong Kong 1
Sham Shui Po is an area that I have only heard in TVB dramas but had never thought to venture. This time around, I got a little bored with Tsim Sa Tsui, Mongkok et cetera and visited the area. If you are a fan of Hong Kong Drama, you will probably be delighted to find yourself in […]
Mini Studio Stanley 迷你公寓 @ Hong Kong
Just pop yourself onto a mini bus and 30 minutes later, say out “司機 . 前面有落!” (Mr Driver, please stop at the front) and you will find yourself facing a different aspect of Hong Kong in Stanley (赤柱). It makes sense how Stanley is a popular tourist attraction – the sea, the scenic hill, the beach and shopping, if you […]
Apple Dorm 苹果宿舍 @ Sham Shui Po, Hong Kong
The standard of living in Hong Kong is so high that a long term stay in this city is hardly sustainable. Whether you are in Hong Kong for a month-long work, student exchange program or simply hope to explore every inch of Hong Kong, I think I might have a good solution for your accommodation woes […]
Hotel Review : Mini Hotel Causeway Bay @ Hong Kong
Having been to Hong Kong on numerous occasions, I know the navigation of the metropolis like the back of my hand and no problem in locating my usual food haunts. What always troubled me, was finding an adequate accommodation that will leave me with more provision aka my ‘food money’. I do not mind space constraint […]
Up Close with Emperor’s Terracotta, Hong Kong
An Epitome of HK Street Food : Stinky Tofu
“Should we buy?” “Err.. there’s no WE, there’s only YOU. Do you want to try or not?” Such was the cold answer that CS gave me, when I tried to rope him into this ‘try the stinky tofu’ scheme. He remained unrelenting. I figured I won’t be returning to HK for the next five years […]
Hong Kong Day 3: Four Season Claypot Rice
If Nam Long was the best breakfast we had in Hong Kong, Four Season Claypot Rice is definitely the best dinner we had over there. It was well ‘documentated’ in food blogs and we found out it was right behind our hotel. We had tried to eat here on our first day but it was […]
