Hong Kong and San Francisco were all kinds of awesome - eating and shopping non-stop!!
Mango sago drink!
...with my roasted goose rice!
Pork cutlet bun from Tsui Wah (翠華)
which is one of my favourite restaurant/cafe (茶餐厅) in HK!
The famous condensed milk bun from Tsui Wah!
OMGGGG I MISS THIS NOW
Of course we can't do without dim sum in HK ;)
The food just kept coming it was crazy
Mango desserts from Xu Liu Shan (许留山) before some hardcore shopping!
Mine!
The tiny glutinous rice balls are so chewy and to-die-for!!
After a few hours, we had bag within bag within bag...
SO MUCH FUN!
I've got a couple of questions on where's good to shop and eat in HK...
Here are a few of my personal favorites :)
S H O P
Fa Yuen Gai (花园街)
(Prince Edward station)
I would recommend going to this street for shopping first
'cause it's the cheapest so you won't feel upset or cheated for buying the same piece of clothing
at double the price somewhere else.
New Town Mall
(exit D2 at Mongkok station)
3 or 4 storeys (I can't remember) of endless shopping!
...only for girls though.
It's kinda like Platinum Mall/Far East Plaza.
I love this place!
H&M
Haha I know this is everywhere but I seldom visit Singapore's
and HK has the cheapest H&M due to their weak currency.
My favourite outlets got to be the one in Mongkok and Tsim Sha Tsui
which aren't as crowded as the one in Central, which always has no sizes.

Tsui Wah (翠華)
I was first introduced to this restaurant by Sau and I've always been on the lookout for it after.
My boyfriend, my colleagues, my friends, everybody I know,
LOVES this place!
Everything's nice but I usually order the condensed milk bun,
pork cutlet bun and fishball/fishcake noodles.
Just go there ok???
Yung Kee
(Central 中環)
Famous for their roasted goose!
The last time I went,
H and I had a feast of all their roasted meat!
Yummy but albeit oily.
Xu Liu Shan (许留山)
This dessert place needs no introduction, it's on every other street in HK.
Everybody knows it and everybody loves it :)
That's all I managed to pack into my two-day stay in HK!
Too short a stay to travel out of Kowloon and
I cannot remember all the other nice places I went to on my previous trips.
Probably next time when I travel to HK for a holiday? ;)
Look, my new book!
I collected it from the concierge right after check-in and I was soooo excited
I started downloading books despite being extremely tired.
It's lighter than a book and I think I made the right choice getting the Kindle Touch :)
Skincare I got from Sephora.
Will do a review when I've got the time!
Omgggggg the besttttttt clam chowder from Boudin!
I don't have to travel all the way to Fisherman's Wharf just for a bowl of this anymore!
I accidentally chanced upon a Boudin Bakery right in the city of San Francisco, next to Macy's.
SCORE!
I've updated SHOPTIPPYTAPP if you're interested ;)
Back soon!
