The duration of flight was effing 4hours!
Finally, reached HK airport. Took tram to their Airport Express Station! *excited & happy*
HongKong Station! And Manning was the first shop that caught my attention because in Singapore, we call it Guardian. My previous employer! The things was so cheap compared to sg. Cotton buds for less than S$1!!
Our hotel is located at Causeway Bay. Took a long time to find the way to our hotel! And the people there was very helpful! An auntie stopped by and asked if we need help because we were looking at the local map. She didn't know the way but insist of helping us and even helped us to ask around! Good start! And yes, we finally found the hotel - Butterly on Morrison!
Checked-in. Settled down, explore the map and off we go for our lunch. Kind of funny we actually dined at a Japanese restaurant but that was because we were still unfamilar with the place. But the restaurant's sushi was Oishi neh! Lets see!
Their green tea is in powder form and its free of charge!
Sashimi!
Big scallop and less rice unlike Singapore, tiny scallop with handful rice!
Soft Shell crab!
Grilled cod fish. Another thumb up dish! Fresh and JUICY!! Sis keep saying that even without the mayonaise, its DELICIOUS!
Ok, we decided not to fill up the stomach and save some space for the local food. =)
Fried tofu! And it was superb nice!!! With gravy and mini mushrooms, and abit of ginger. Singapore - fried tofu with sweet sauce! Boo!

So, our shopping spree starts!
Went over to 深水埗 (Sham Shui Po). We just walk randomly and there we are at Dragon Centre. The place was full of markets and we were overwhelmed by the only shopping centre we saw. LOL!
The 臭豆腐 (smelly tofu)
Our legs were already aching for the first day! Seriously no time to stop and rest.
Day 2.
View from our room. 17 storey.
The toilet signboard is so cute!
After shopping at gi square, we went to the local 茶餐厅 for lunch. Ordered their lunch set and the meal was so healthy!
Tomatoes macoroni with chicken lean meat.
Walked over to Berverly Mall and the shops there are all wedding boutiques. Sadly, i didn't take any photos of it but trust me, it was amazing! And the shops are like not very posh(maybe like bugis street 2nd level display) but their gowns were awesome!
Inside the train.
Parted with Amy and we went over to 花园街 and the things there were dirt cheap. You can really spend hours shopping for nice clothes.

The stuffs there was very cheap. Next, we went over to 旺角(MongKong). This is another awesome place and u simply got to agree with me! We shop there EVERYDAY! lol!
The streets full of signage!
Their local delight. Yummy! *drooling*
The 臭豆腐 (smelly tofu)
Next, we shopped at 女人街(ladies market) and stop by at one of the nearby stall to try their 龟苓膏(herbal jelly). Quite nice though a little expensive.
Then, we continue to shop and shop and shop.
This was our first day sprees.

Day 2.
View from our room. 17 storey.
First stop to 尖沙咀 (Tsim Sha Tsui) to meet sis's HK friend - Amy. Shop at gi square while waiting for Amy to reach.

Afterwhich, meet with Amy and her bf for dinner. And this restaurant food was great! Simply love the noodles!
The food.
For hygiene purpose, we need to soak our feet in warm herbal water before massaging .
And then....the massaging starts. Well, the feeling is of cause painful but not to the extend that you'll scream on the top of your voice. LOL! Just pain only! After that, supper and back to hotel!
Day 3.
17-05. Go buy 4D! lol!
Muffins for breakfast. Cranberries and chocolate chips!
And yes, we did that everyday while waiting for trains. Walked pass this bread shop that sells nice muffins and we buy it everyday. And no one stop us from eating inside the station! LOL!
One good thing is that the shopping mall at MongKok closes at about 11pm - 11.30pm so we shopped till late night and board the train back. Also, the train operates till late too! So, thats something good compared to Singapore(shops closes at 10pm - SIAN).
So after shopping, Sis suggested foot reflexology and this was my first time trying! Thus we went to one of the shops near our hotel.

Here we are at 花园街 again!
And i bought a pair of high boots there which was like my favourite purchases of all!
Continue shopping at the street and these watermelon is very tiny but u can't really see from the picture.
Squids.
Fighter fishball. I like! Not to forget deep fried pig's intestine! YUMMY!!
Local delights.
Look at the nice boots!

Weimin(sis's friend) wanted to meet us so we went over to the overhead bridge to wait for him. He took god damn long to arrive because he lost his way. LOL! So we spent time cam-whoring on the overhead bridge.

Toilets in HK Mcdonalds. Built-in aircon! The toilet has only 2 cubicles. Imagine such a small place got one aircon by itself. My room also don't have lor!
Ended our day early at Mongkok. Headed back to Causeway bay. Guess what? To my surprised, their wet markets aren't closing yet! Open till late night, at about 8pm! And i guess their seafood is really fresh. The fishes are all still alive!
Did i mention that Time Square is just few minutes walk away from our hotel? The mall has got all branded boutiques like Takashimaya.
Craving for noodles, so we went out for dinner at this restaurant and THE FOOD TASTES REALLY DELICIOUS LOR! Too bad i didn't snap a photo of their shop! =(
Mask before beauty sleep.
Day 4. Mongkok again! That was really a shopping paradise! Look at the human traffic!
After dinner.
There we started to shop again and bought a REALLY CUTE luggage bag of Winnie The Pooh! Simply love it! Good bargain! Satisfied! Intro it to Anna and she went over to buy it the next day! HAHAHA!
Board MTR back to hotel.
Different types of MTR cards.
Stuffed all the shopping bags into the luggage and Weimin help us to carry! Ahmad! LOL!
Again, somewhere near our hotel has got this protesting event going on, as u can see there's police around and also reporters and all. Sis thought there's some filming going on! LOL!
Outside our hotel.
Day 5. Early morning reached airport. Flight at 11am but due to the wrong info given by the hotel's staff, we reached at effing 8.30am!
Taxi fare of HKD 28.50. Approximately 15mins ride but the hotel staff told us about 40mins! -_-"
Checked-in for luggage and we went for breakfast. The dim Sum at airport taste damn nice but service very poor. Waited the food for so long that we ALMOST missed our flight! Bad!
Ok, know why we ALMOST missed our flight? Because the serving of food took goddamn 20mins with not much customers in the restaurant. Lastest check-in time is 10.40am and we were still eating by 10.20am! We were running with luggages with one terminal to another, only to realised that its the wrong terminal, then took tram back and run all the way. Reached gate at 11am! LOL!
Inside air plane. Tired and uncomfortable yet can't rest well.
That was the end of the whole trip. Throughout the trip, i learnt that we can actually dress up very pretty because we don't need and have no time to try the clothes there. So we need not worry of being troublesome removing and fitting the clothes. Just see it, want it, buy it! No need to try it! lol And, public toilet is like doesn't exist there lor! Hard to find. Mostly importantly, speaking in English is a MUST in hongkong. LOL!
This, I truly experience the meaning of 买东西, 吃东西, 买东西, 吃东西. You can't stop shopping and eating! And we buy like nobody's business. SHIOK! I will want to go again next year!
