Dimsum @Kaohsiung
A few days before leaving Kaohsiung, I knew I had to go back to my favorite Dimsum restaurant for the last time~

Outfit: Off-shoulder top from taiwan x shorts from HK x necklace from tw
Reached the restaurant after a twelve minute walk from the MRT, the address is on the menu ^^
Prices are reasonable, with no service charge, and free tea!
Prepare to get hungry :P
Cheese baked cabbage, didn't knew cheese can go well with vege haha
The tasty char siew su
My favorite dish and cannot be missed each time I am here- pan fried carrot cake ^*
Purple glutinous rice with meat filling
Another all-time favorite, custard buns!!
Their spring roll was special and fried differently from the normal ones I have eaten, it tasted like Mc Nuggets to me, but still yummmmehhh
The bill for 3 people after ordering so much! Total up to SGD$22~

HK Day 3
This is going to be my last post on my HK trip 1 month ago:) I am missing their dim sum and shopping already...
Started our day with shopping at Argyle centre(for the second time) because I love the place to bits :P
My friend recommended me the cold noodles at Arygle centre and it was really good!
If Im not wrong, its at either the basement or first floor of Argyle centre and the stall name is "百味". I got the original flavor and you can choose a few ingredients like sotong, seaweed, vege, hotdog to add to your noodles. Plus the black and chilli sauce mix together, its perfect and the noodles was really 'Q' :D It was so nice and the serving was quite small so we bought another packet to share hehe.
My first share tea by happy lemon~ Ordered the Matcha with lemon cubes drink. Tw still sell the best and cheapest bubble tea!
After shopping for a while, headed to the H&M at Langham Mall in Mongkok. And proud to say that we had conquered all the H&M outlets in HK! Haha
Took a photo of the opening hours of the famous Fa Yuen Street because many people were confused with the opening hours as the travel guide books and online info given were not very accurate. It generally opens earlier during public holidays and weekends.
The stalls here are all selling the same stuff: electronics, tourist shirts, imitation bags and nothing much and so I was wondering why people say there's a lot to shop at Fa Yuen street??? So we figured out that Fa yuen street actually stretches to the opposite side and you have to cross a bridge to there which has more shops selling ladies clothes. We nearly miss out this place!
We came across a bakery in Mongkok that sells very nice pastries like laopo bing, boluo bun and one that tasted like muahchee with red bean inside~ Yummss
We also visited Tai Cheong Bakery at Mongkok East MTR station for their egg tarts and char siew pie and it was really good!! The egg tarts were so crispy that it still tasted so well the next day when I ate it for breakfast. The egg tarts were selling like hot cakes and we had to wait. Highly recommended!
Dinner was dimsum at Canton's kitchen in Central
Spring roll
Custard bun with egg yolk, I love custard buns that have the filling oozing out after tearing them apart! Some restaurants sell custard buns but its actually filled with very dried custard which I don't really like
And the rest...
We went to the victoria harbor after dinner and it was so cold that night I was freezing so badly!! But was happy to see the beautiful place as we have missed the scenic view from the peak.
Which led us on to the Avenue of stars...
Jackie Chan's fingerprints
Have to pose a handsome shot for 刘德华
I only know 刘嘉玲 hence that was the only photo I've taken:)
And we headed back to the hotel to rest our legs for Disneyland the next day! Thats all, thanks for reading xx

HK Day 1
We have decided to go to HK during our spring break in NSYSU and it was my first time there. We reached in the late afternoon at about 4pm and we were so tired as we took a midnight flight from singapore to taipei and then another flight from taipei to hk, all in the same day. So tired till I "unglaming-ly" slept in the airport seats for a few hours while waiting for our flight to hk.
We were supposed to stay in one of the hotels located in Chung King Mansion along Nathan road in Tsim Sha Tsui (TST) BUT after what yushu has told me about the place, I immediately went to cancel my stay in the hotel. We did not really pay much attention to the reviews when we went to book it, rather we focus on finding hotels which have good locations/near the MTR. Luckily we managed to switch our hotel to Metropark Hotel at Kowloon. Although it was much more expensive, I didnt regret it. I went to check out the Chung King Mansion on the first night and the place were filled with Indians, Pakistanis and Africans men asking you to buy their products(dk if its illegal) and I felt kind of scared and unsafe walking in that mansion. Furthermore, there was free shuttle bus from our hotel to TST and Mongkok(ladies market) almost every half an hour which was really convenient for us :)
Anyway, a big thank you to some of my friends who sent me their HK itineraries and it makes it easier for me to find all the awesome food and shopping places! :) Esp those who even ask their friends for it and then sent to me, tyvm :')
After unpacking, we took the shuttle bus to TST for dinner. We were looking for a restaurant called "Sweet Dynasty" (糖朝）recommended by many people. It is a cantonese restaurant that serves noodles/fried rice/congee, desserts and dim sum.
Food that we ordered!
My favorite dish was this har gow! There was soup inside just like xiaolongbao, so yummy!
This red bean tauhuey was our substitute for the bucket of tauhuey which I heard is supppperrrrr famous here but is so big and expensive(sgd$12) hence we didnt order as we thought we might nt be able to finish it. I am not a big fan of tauhuey but this dessert is just nice for me as the red bean is good and is not very sweet.
Overall, I think their dishes was so-so for the price we paid for it. 5 dishes for Sgd $31... I would only go back for their other desserts which looks really good in the menu :)
After dinner, we walked around TST and this is the infamous Chung King Mansion. But the exterior of the building looks nice though
AND meet my new baby! Big damage on my first night. But I am so happy because I have been looking for this classic necklace design at a lot of places already but it was sold out! I am so lucky this time :>
FYI, I don't use my parents $ or ask my parents for $ to buy branded stuff or pay for my daily expenses for shopping. I haven't been taking allowance from them ever since after A levels? Some girls show off their countless branded stuff but I only admire those who work and have their own ability to buy for it. Unless its a gift.. Cos then its worth showing off to other people right? Hahaa okay #justsaying
*add on* cos some people say I sounded pissed in my last paragraph haha but Im actually not ! :) Its just that I do not want to give people the impression that I spend a lot and I am using my parents' money ;)
Thats all for day 1, thanks for reading xx
