How's the weather over at hong kong now? Will be flying off wed morning
24c is like aircon rite haha..
thanks buddy, as for dim sum at lower end restaurants.. will there be a problem if i cant read their local chinese meal? or i could just point and order when they push their carts around?try the roast meats eg roast goose, duck, char siew etc. generally quite good everywhere.
dim sum especially at the lower end restaurants which the locals patronise, good and cheap. avoid going weekends cos of long queues.
Cafe De Coral, Maxims for local favourites and localised western dishes.
cart noodle, beef noodle, wanton noodle, porridge, claypot rice
desserts
Btw, is there any places for night chill-out or KTV?
thanks buddy, no worries about being thick skinned just for a good trip.Not all restaurants have push cards. For those that have just point at what you want. For those that don't have ask the waiters/waitresses or point at the dishes other diners are eating. I also have problem reading Chinese. Just be a bit thick skin and ask. Sometimes I just ask the waitress to fill in the form for me. Can also ask what is the special for the day etc.
heard from a friend that soho has got lots of night chill out pubs but its more for the western community though. nevertheless, still all good.Btw, is there any places for night chill-out or KTV?

i heard that i should speak english instead of mandarin since my proficiency of cantonese is only 1%.
true that they speak and understand english better than mandarin?
thanks in advanced! maybe i'll post up my compilation to share once i have a complete and good list.
thanks for the prompt reply..Depends where. In high end restaurants (read expensive) where foreigners go they can understand English. Other than that Mandarin would be better. Now a lot better as they are dependent on Mainland Chinese for a lot bulk of business and will try to respond in Mandarin even though they don't speak it well.
Other than LKF, there's Knutsford Terrace at TST.
KTV wise, Neway and 加州紅 are practically everywhere.
Another qns, is Zhu Hai a MUST to go? I dun think there's any time slot for this leh...
And how do I go to Venetian Macao Casino, Senado Square, Ruins of St Paul and Macau Tower in Macau? Are they close to each other?
Senado Sq and Ruins of St Paul are very close. As for macau tower and venetian, could be slightly further. but taking cab in macau is very cheap! dun need save on cab fare.
Hi...
Tai Yuen Street is in wan chai and selling toys ( for / men young people / kids ...etc )... Fa Yuen street is at Prince Edward ( Mong Kok )... they are selling something like Basar Malam...... but of course the things they are selling there is different.
