Hong Kong - Shopping, Makan and More Shopping!

Day 1: 11 Apr'09 ~ SGD - HK; Shopping!
Earliest flight by Jetstar with the Girls!
Accomodation: Butterfly at the Prat
Nice, modern and very new boutique hotel at Prat Avenue. A really convenient location as it's right at Tsim Sha Tsui, minutes away from Nathan road, and walking distance from ferry terminal (to Hong Kong island)

We jetted off for our lunch at any Char Chang Ting near our Hotel after checking-in.
And of Course, my first order at HK will be Niu Zai Mian and Hot Milk Tea!
Yummy!


After lunch, we shopped NON-STOP , and amazingly, we didn't cover much ground (probably 400m along Nathan Road) and our hands were full with shopping bags at th end of 6 hours!
My Favourite Ice-cream in Hong Kong!
Lusciously smooth, creamy soft softee...
(PS: Check out our shooping bags, within the few bags
contains 1/2 of our purchases for our 5 days trip: 6 bags, 6 shoes, 1 Shirt, 2 Skirts,etc..)


Day 2: Hong Kong Island, Stanley, Happy Valley, The Peak

We had a quickBreakfast at another local Char Chang Ting before we start our day for the sight-seeing.

And Obviously, we can't get enough of the Niu Zai Mian

Simple looking, but still delicious!

"Happy Valley" - no race today, wasted trip,

So shall take another touristy pic!

Day 3 - Macau!

One of the Best Dim Sum brunch I had!

Recommended Dish: Chan Fen with Crispy Ebi, Bird's Nest Egg Tarts, etc etc...

Can't remember the name of the restaurant, but it's Located near Prat Ave, along Canarvon Road (Any conceirge at the hotel will know about this restaurant)

At the Ferry waiting area...
Here we come, Macau!

Day 4 - Shopping!

Afternoon tea at Char Chan Ting,though aren't good as Day 3 Breakfast, it's definitely better than what we can find at Singapore's bakery!

Little Knick-knacks at Temple Street

Dessert at "Xu Liu Shan" with Ponder

Their "Yang Zi Gan Lu" is Sooo.... nice!

Where our Hotel is Located...

Day 5 - Shopping at Lai Chi Kwok; Home Sweet Home!
