Hong Kong 2014 Day 5

Why times passed so fast when we were enjoying. Haiz...we had come to the last day in Hong Kong and back to reality. Really feeling very down.
 
That morning, when I log into my facebook, I saw the post about the missing Malaysian Airlines Plane MH370. How come such thing happened on the day we were supposed to fly back to Singapore. (hahaha)
 
We had our last brunch at
太興
Address : 旺角彌敦道625號雅蘭中心地下G25舖 
 
The food is cheap and nice and the staff are friendly. *Thumb up*
 




Luncheon Meat Sandwiches

After brunch, we went to buy the most important stuff  i.e.
恆香老餅家
Address : 579 Nathan Road, Shop 1, Mong Kok, Kowloon, Mongkok MTR Exit A1
Opening Hours : 10.00am - 9.30pm

Hong Kong 2014 Day 4

We woke up quite early and got ready to go back to Hong Kong. I gobbled down 2 Lord Stow's egg tarts that I bought the day before.
 
We have made a wise decision to arrive at the ferry terminal much earlier and, hence we took a much earlier ferry back to Hong Kong. As we reached Hong Kong before lunch time, we didn't have queue. (In Hong Kong drama, they always need to queue for seats to 'yum cha' one.)
 
However, as we were too used to the "please wait to be seated" style in Singapore, we stood at the entrance waiting to be served. Too bad lor, we waited quite a while, but still nobody served us. So Amy went to ask a busy lady at the front counter. Actually we just needed to walk in and find any available table to sit down.
 
The waitress was laying the table that we had chose to sit...hmmm...I should say she was throwing the cutlery on the table instead of laying. The staff were quite unfriendly but what to do, their food is nice wor...I will still want to come to eat again. 
 
We had our lunch at
Maxim's palace
Address : Shop Unit Nos.B13-B18 on the B/F Shun Tak Centre, HK  
Opening hours : 7:30am – 4:30pm & 6:00pm – 11:30pm  
 




 Porridge again!!!


肠粉 again!!!





 See the crowd...
 
This was the most expensive meal that we ate in Hong Kong.
 
After lazing in Langham Place Hotel for awhile, we decided to head down to the Starbuck at Sai Yee Street.

Address : 旺角洗衣街89-91號偉基樓1樓及2樓;89-91 Sai Yee Street
 
















 
There were many students studying at this Starbucks. I was wondering if they get distracted by us snapping pictures here and there.
 
We had our dinner at
翠華餐廳
Address : 旺角砵蘭街240-244號旺角文華地下
 
 
I could not find porridge in their menu, hence I ordered the prawn noodle and tea with milk. Very nice...We also had 許留山 for dessert for the last night in Hong Kong.
 

I love Jill Stuart products. Nice smell and princess-like packaging.

Macau 2014 Day 3

I didn't realised I had bought the tickets to board the ferry from Sheung Wan instead of Tsim Sha Tsui until the day before. Lucky, we checked the printed email confirmation again, then we realised we were supposed to go to
HONG KONG MACAU FERRY TERMINAL,
Shun Tak Centre, Connaught Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong Island
 
(I should have chose the "FROM" destination as "KOWLOON" instead of Hong Kong. Haiz.)
 
Since we were supposed to board ferry at Sheung Wan, so we took MTR instead of cab. When we reached Sheung Wan, we took the Exit D which lead us to Shun Tak Centre. We went to the 3rd level to collect our tickets.
 
 Ferry tickets to Macau.
 
Our ferry tickets timing is 9.30am. Everything happened too fast, after we pass through the Hong Kong Immigration  & Customs, went down to the waiting area and immediately being guided to the board the ferry. Stress...no time to breathe.
 
~~~Row~Row~Row - a - boat ~~~
 
The weather was cool and windy. My hair was messy and I love it this way!!!
 
 On the way to Venetian Hotel, we saw MACAO tower!!!
 Selfie @ Venetian Hotel Lobby

 Very nice ceiling.
 Nice public toilet.
Breakfast @ MacDonald
 
We were only allowed to checked-in to Hotel after 2pm, hence, we decided to take a cab to Ruins of St. Paul's Catheral (大三巴)
 
We went to look for teleco shop to buy a pre-paid card. HK$100 for 1 day unlimited data. Expensive hor...After that, we just followed the crowd to get to the Senado Square. But it started to rain shortly when we reached.

 All the pharmacy were packed with people.

 
 

 
 


 
 
 
 
 Egg tart! *Thumbs up*👍
 Bought the pork burger here. Not very nice.
 


The rain was getting heavier, hence, we decided to take a cab back to our Hotel to check-in. However, there was no cab available on the road. So clever Amy suggested that we walked to the nearest Hotel to wait for cab. In the end, she managed to spot the place whereby we could take the shuttle bus to the City of Dreams Hotel. From there, we slowly followed the signboard to go back to Venetian Hotel. A lot of walking...tired de lor.

The famous egg tart that everybody's is talking about. I must try even though I had already eaten three. 










 
We had our dinner at
Old Hong Kong Tea House
Adress : Shop 308, Mask Street, Shoppes Grand Canal, Venetian Hotel
Opening Hours : Mon - Thur : 10.00am to 10.00pm, Fri - Sun/PH : 10.00am to 11.00pm


The place was decorated like Hong Kong olden times. There were some seats that looked like a sampan. The food was nice but quite expensive. My favourite porridge cost HK$168.00, costly right. So I ate noodle instead.












After dinner were photo-taking time!!! Click click here! Click click there!






















 
It was packing time again! Two bags come and Three bags go. 
 
Must be wondering what we bringing back...it's almond cookies from 鉅記饼家.
