Hong Kong
Day 2 - 16th Aug 06'
woke up early in the morning... haha yeah right who am i kidding... last night was darn tired... we even got back to hotel like 10-ish which never happened while we were in korea... bathed then conked out flat... no free breakfast were given so we had only beverages and off we go... by the time we got out of the hotel it was close to 11am...
our spontaneous plan was to makan dim sum and head to madame tussauds... arrived at City Hall Maxim's Palace at Central for their dim sum as i've researched reviews stated it was the best moreover they were listed as one of the recommended dinings in the Hong Kong Shopping Festival list

we ordered way lot of dim sums... we were still ordering before we had any one of the waitress was like "why don't u eat first then order later... if not, when it gets cold it wouldn't taste good" abit pai-seh lah... but it'll be nicer to have a picture taken with the many many dim sums altogether and it'll be yummier to savour the taste slowly being able to choose of the many varieties rather than finish one and have to wait before the waitress arrive with the cart...
i have never eaten so much dim sums in my life... because... 1. no price were stated so order saja 2. it was so yummy that u cannot stop ordering 3. after all we did a whole lot of budgetting in korea why not have a good meal once and for all... see how happy i am

next we started our journey of street shopping... we landed at li yuen steet... the bag shop where she bought one recommended us to King Bakery for their egg tarts... and truly their egg tarts were remarkable... i bought two it was squashed by the time i got back to the hotel... but sy's tart survived

we visited more streets like the Fa Yuen Street and the Ladies Market... no picture was snapped cos err every street looks similar... haha... anyways... in my humble opinion u can't say u've been to hong kong unless u've try their fishballs... so yes... i bought it... it doesn't look spicy... because the soup it was dipped and cook in wasn't red/curry like... it was black... no idea why it turned out to be spicy... i thought hongkies do not eat spicy stuff... i was disappointed a little because i couldn't find those push-cart stalls like those existed in tvb series... didn't manage to even try "putt chai kou"

after much wandering... we decided to head back as most of the shops closes around 11.30pm... arrived at our hotel about midnight... here's a pic of our beautiful hotel
