Gone Shopping...in Honkers!

18-22 Oct 2007.


I was on a mission. I had 4 days in HK. The purpose was to shop like crazy...oh and also eat and go out. I won't bore you with what I bought but the shopping was sensational as always.

Here are some of the highlights:



The best Brekky: Macaroni soup noodles with Beef (no chopstick skills required as you get a fork and spoon to eat those slippery little suckers!). All this time, I thought this was a dish that was invented by my grandma & mum. But this trip to HK, I learnt that it is actually a dish served in the local noodle houses for breakfast!






Met up with Longy and his mate Quin for drinks in Causeway bay. It was nice to go to a bar where locals hang out. This polaroid pic was a gift from a Halloween promotion they were doing that night. You know how Honkies love taking photos! There was a girl sitting at the table next to us. She managed to trip over twice within the space of 5 minutes (must have been a cadbury drinker!). I also learnt about the 4 types of HK girls, MK (Mongkok tri-hards), CWB (Causeway Bay hotties), Central (i.e. trophy wife types) & New Territories (farming country bumpkins). Hilarious stuff!

Mission accomplished!

P.S. I have become a total travel snob! There was no 'on-demand' inflight entertainment on the flight. Not happy, Jan!
