Window of the World, China. August 2009
I was going to post a more typical photo of something that relates to “scale” this week but this photo caught my eye as I was browsing all my thousands of photos. This photo shows scale too! Look at how cute and small that little boy is compared to the plastic fake rhino and its baby. Also spot the pink shopping bag to the left and its size. 😀 Continue reading
Hung Fook Tong located at many various locations all around Hong Kong
September 27, 2017:
After almost three weeks of enjoying their healthy drinks, here is a brief blog post about it. Hung Fook Tong is a company that specializes in selling healthy drinks and herbal jelly. Apparently, they are the biggest retailer and distributor in Hong Kong of such items. They are located in stores such as shopping malls as well as many MTR stations which makes it so easy to pick up a drink when commuting and shuttling from MTR station to MTR Continue reading

September 27, 2017:
For dim sum today with relatives, we went to Chiuchow Garden (潮庭) in Sha Tin New Town Plaza. I’ve been there for dinner for sure but uncertain whether I had been here for dim sum and whether it had been blogged before. Thus, here is a brief recap through mostly photos of what we Continue reading
Yamm located at The Mira Hong Kong, G/F,, 118-130 Nathan Rd, Tsim Sha Tsui in Hong Kong
September 26, 2017: Today, we dined with our travel buddies again for a lunch buffet at the Yamm at The Mira Hong Kong Hotel. There was a deal where if you had four people, the fifth person was free. We had six people together so it was still kind of a nice deal.
We arrived promptly at the posh hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui at 12 p.m. The buffet restaurant called Yamm was actually Continue reading

September 25, 2017: Today, we went to the ubiquitous Pizza Express restaurant for lunch in Shatin. They have many branches all over Hong Kong including the airport too. I’ve also passed by this branch before but never tried it.

Glorious Cuisine located at G/F, 31-33 Shek Kip Mei Street, Sham Shui Po in Hong Kong
September 24, 2017:
For dinner, we went to Glorious Cuisine (增煇大排檔 & 增煇藝廚) with our travel buddies. I originally thought this was a legitimate dai pai dong restaurant since their Chinese name had the words “大排檔” in it. Alas, I was disappointed when we arrived and I found out that it was actually more of a typical Chinese restaurant. I believe they used to operate as a traditional dai pai dong but has since adapted with the modern times to become a sit-down Continue reading
Gardens by the Bay, Singapore. March 2013
This was one of the coolest pedestrian bridges I’ve ever been on! It is the Gardens by the Bay attraction in Singapore where you walk above the ground in these huge Supertrees that look so futuristic and cool! Other than walking pedestrians, you don’t have to worry about cars or any other vehicle on this type of elevated walkway.
As for this week’s intended theme, this bridge is actually Continue reading

I’ve passed by this building many, many times but this was the first time I got to report in one of the firms on the upper floors!
It was really posh inside and the conference room itself even had an entire coffee and tea station, hot water, cute little squares of sliced lemon, juice, soda, Continue reading

September 24, 2017: We returned today to Chrisly Cafe/Capital Cafe (華星冰室) to try out their signature items. When we were here two weeks ago , we used the free hotel vouchers to redeem their standard breakfast and lunch sets. This time, I wanted to try the popular items that made them famous.
We arrived at around 1 p.m. and Continue reading
