Toast Box (土司工坊) is a nice cafe in Hong Kong that serves Singaporean inspired snacks and drinks. When I was staying in Hong Kong, there is one just near by and was great to try it out.
Here are some more photos taken in Hong Kong. In no particular order, these photos were taken in Mongkok and Causeway Bay.
Was invited to a friend’s boat in Hong Kong. Even though we were just staying in the harbour, it was a great way to get away from the city. This is in Sai Kung somewhere….
It has been a long time since I visited Stanley. The last time I was in Hong Kong I didn’t get a chance to visit. Stanley is a tourist attraction with shops selling souvenirs and restaurants and pubs for foreigners and locals to hang out. It is a leisurely location in the southern part of the Hong Kong Island. For a city that has a high stress and super high density population, Stanley is a little gem for relaxation and finding space on weekends.
Here I am in Hong Kong visiting, making a pit stop before visiting the next destination. This time around, I am taking the Sony Alpha NEX-5N with me. So far I am very happy with the photos it takes.
When night falls, shopping begins! That makes sense to me. If shops only opens during regular business hours, who has time to shop?
There are lots of old buildings in Hong Kong. I think the most interesting ones are the corner buildings with a round corner on every floor. These buildings are pretty old, and most are not tall at all. I would guess they are 50 to 60 years on average. I hope they will preserve these buildings are they are much more interesting than the new taller highrises built these days. Here are some photos of the corner houses I took while I was in Hong Kong.
During my trip to Hong Kong, I had a chance to visit Lamma Island. Lamma Island used to be a small fishing island, producing lots of pawn paste and other sun dried seafood. I used to despise the smell of the seafood hanging to dry up and be preserved by salt. Now, I don’t find it offensive anymore probably because my nose doesn’t work as well anymore :P
