Our old uni friend Henry and his girlfriend Zoe are visiting for a week and by default I become the tour guide, which by the way, I bloody love! Being a tourist in Hong Kong never gets old. This time we even discovered some new places - bonus!
Starting from the top left;
- We got the chance to go see the Grand Prix in Macau last Sunday. A fantastic experience and a good day spent with good friends.
- We hit the bird garden in Mong Kok. What an array of beautifully coloured exotic birds to see. There are a few miserable parrots and some nice ones that greet you with a nice hello and an exhausting goodbye!
- Then we hit the Flower Market on no other than 'Flower Market Road'. This is a must see if you adore flowers, like me. I left with a beautiful bunch of cream roses (pictured in the middle).
- Banana and caramel crispy waffles with a side order of milk bubble tea at a funky little cafe we found in Mong Kok.
- Ramen at Ippudo in Central. Sooooo GOOD.
- Henry and Zoe in Brick House - a very hip little Mexican joint in Lan Kwai Fong. Tasty food and tastier cocktails with a bit jalapeno thrown in for good measure.
- We took a trip to the Peak. The best view of Hong Kong (on a clear day) and took a few snaps!
- Henry, Zoe and I landed in Passion, a lovely french style bakery in Tsim Sha Tsui. Lovely baked goods but not so good for the figure.
- We also found ourselves in the Goldfish Market, Mong Kok. A whole road boasting hundreds of brightly coloured fish in plastic bags hung up on metal fences. So if you are in the market for a new goldfish, you know where to head.
