Picture Story: Macau/HK Day Four

After starting the new job for over a month and a half, the holiday in Macau/HK does seem like ages ago. :( Time for another holiholiday? Teehee. *I can just imagine Vic giving me dirty looks when he reads this*

Anyway, this is the view from our small pigeon hole hotel room in the Dorsett YMT. I'm totally fine with the small space because the room was really well kept and soooo clean. Can't emphasise enough on the importance of having a clean hotel room. It totally freaks me out when the room is all dirty and run down. I can't even shit in peace.

What does one eat for breakfast in Hong Kong? Dim sum, of course! Right behind the mango dessert shop (which is opposite the hotel) is a dim sum restaurant. Talk about being in the right location. Food everywhere!

As the picture shows: Hsin Kuang Seafood Restaurant

Totally awesome fried 'foo chok' thingy with a lot prawns.

I think this was some sort of custard pao.

Char siew pao.

Chicken feet for Vic.

Har gow

Dunno-what-name-but-got-scallops-innit!!! This is so delicious. I wanted to order another one, but Vic gave me the evil eye.

Some steamed liver dish

*****
Can someone tell me what hourly hotels are for? I can only think of one use for them and don't call me dirty minded, ah! For people to go have quickies - either paid or FOC. What other reason lah? To store luggage? To take a shower? To sleep for one hour?

Egg tarts! Oh boy, these are good ones.

I sent Vic to take the picture below in fears of getting scolded by the many gangster/kuwak chais hanging around. Later people scold my mother, not very nice lor!

WE ARE GOING TO DISNEYLAND!

Just kidding. Well, not really. We did go. We paid for the MTR ride. Sat on board the special Disney express, but we only went to look see outside. There simply wasn't enough time.

*****

After our visit to the entrance of Disneyland, we headed to Tung Chung factory outlet aka the Citygate Outlets.

There were tons of branded shops there -Adidas, Nike, Puma, Swatch, Coach, Camel, Esprit, etc. But the prices were only so-so. Except for one shop --- Crocs! Checkout the shoes worn by the model below. For about RM50, you can get brand new Crocs. These aren't the fake/factory overruns being sold at night markets in KL, it's the real deal.

*****

I think we walked at the Citygate Outlet mall until my back broke for the third time. First time was at Zhuhai and the second was at the Argyle Centre. So, time for grub and we headed to Australia Dairy in Tsim Tsa Shui.

To be honest, their noodles/pasta were not that great.

But they do have good eggs!

And super yummy hot milk! If only my mother had given me milk that tasted like this instead of the god awful powdered stuff, I would have drank gallons and would be as tall as any normal person. FML. What to do? My height is lesser than that of the average Asian woman.

One thing we noticed about waiters and waitresses in HK and even Macau, they are quite impatient and rude. Okay, maybe they are just straightforward and efficient and we are slow and indecisive.

But anyway, we had ordered food to share at Australia Dairy and had sorta rearranged the table accordingly. Then this grumpy waiter comes and mumbles something in Canto about him being 99.99% sure we would knock over the plates. We looked up and continued eating. Next thing we know, he is rearranging everything on the table. We gape at him, too afraid to say anything They all look like triad members there.

H&M IS PURE EVIL. 

It makes you want to shop. You walk in and gorgeous dresses, trendy accessories and really cute tops assault you. There is no defending yourself from H&M's attack. Next thing you know, you are at the fitting room and the sales person tells you that only five items can be brought in. Wtf do you do with the other 24 items you've dragged there? Sigh. H&M, oh how much I hate you for making me love shopping in your store. 

*****

Ladies Market @ night.

Lo and behold, the notorious STINKY SMELLY TOFU!
It's actually not that bad. I can eat them without adding any sauce. Oh you know, only pansies who are afraid of a little natural flavour need to pile on the chilli. :P

Some spare parts. Eww.. Now that's something I wouldn't try.

Dinner at Temple Street.

Me and the Chef.

Fried oyster and egg.

Sweet and sour pork. The ones in KL are so much better though.

Claypot chicken with chinese wine

Oh look. We found ciggies. :P 

Apparently you have to crush it for a mentol chill. Very cool.

Again, I dispatched Vic to take a picture. It just wouldn't look right if a girl were to snap pictures of a porn video shop, right.
