Hi Esther. Here goes
Usually i stay in hong kong island only cause i always shop at causewaybay area , ifc, blah blah. too lazy to go anywhere else. How many days are you going?
hmm,1) let's start with H & M in queens road central. they have alot of cheap nice babys clothes, i got quite a few for dylan. just before that is this place call 2)Eugene's club, ----on the 4th floor it is full of babies stuff.
3) then on peddar street, besides shanghai tang, there is this opening to an elevator, take it, i cant remember which story, i think 4th or so, they sell clothes --parallel imports,branded ones, and they snip off the tag, nice dresses and stuff. in the same building is Bumps to babes---another baby store.
4) causeway bay..---overhere, dun miss out sogo. hehe. times square is so so --good for photo taking, but inside the stores are mostly branded.. sale is not here yet,---wat's the point
but i think inside there is a level full of electronics, i think if buy electronics there is worth it, cause of the currency rate.
oh yes, sony showroom is aslo in sogo.
5) the usual temple street , stanley market---not red light district
dun worry.. depends on where you stay---hong kong island or kowloon, but if you stay in hk island, maybe it is better to take train, just 2 stops or so from central to Tsim tsa tsui can shop to
h yes, there is Mong kok too. i hardly go there cause i hate the crowds , but you can get good bargains there
oh yes, the weather is quite chilly sometimes, and quite hot sometimes, better to bring long sleeves w hoods , vest, caps in the bag just in case.dylan mostly wore 2 layers ---one long sleeve and one jacket when out.but it depends, the weather is cranky there.tho not as hot as SG.
where to eat???? hehehe. i recommend METROPOL at united center, ask the hotel to make reservations for dim sum. at queens shopping center adjoining it can shop too, it is also linked to pacific plaza.
i also recommend farm house at causeway bay.i forgot the name of the building tho, can ask the hotel about it.
and yes, there are many good restaurants at world trade center in causeway bay too. my advice---pls make booking, you wun wanna wait. hk pple usually eat late, but you can be amazed at the queue ...ahh, yes, there is times aquare at the corner, you will c a long queue taking elevator up cause there are many restaurants up there too!
hmmmm that's about it. have a good trip! pity is not sale time, hehe maybe you can make another trip down in late july!i feel like doing that. kekeke.
