Posted by kampungboycitygal in Hong Kong, Macau, Travel. 132 Comments

Warning: 53 pictures ahead! Please read after the cut

We’re back from our trip finally! It was a very fruitful trip in terms of eating. We ate as much food as our stomach and hollow leg could hold, blame it on the makan list that we have put together based on some recommendations from openrice.com (Hong Kong no. 1 Food Forum). It’s no exaggeration to say that only another few hundreds hours of running drastically could work away the flab.

Here’s a round up of where we’ve been and what we have tried. Detailed posts will be coming up very soon.

Day 1: 紅茶館 Bridal Tea House Hotel, 澳洲牛奶公司 Australian Dairy Company @ Jordon, 麥文記麵家 Mak Man Kee Noodles House @ Jordon, The Peak, Ladies Street, 貢茶 Gong Cha Milk Tea @ Mongkok, 肥姐小食店 Fei Jie Snacks Shop @ Mongkok, 萬家燒餅皇 Siu Beng Wong @ Mongkok

Hi Patrick, yeah one day will do actually, but rmb to go to taipa village, about 15 min ride from macau’s main island. shall you need any help, do not hesitate to drop us an email

[Reply]
Posted by Pink Stilettos on May 28, 2009 at 12:48 pm

aaa…HK is one of the best places to shop, no? We went there for our honeymoon last year. Surprisingly it was easy to find Halal food as there were many Arab/Indian food. But I’ve to say, one of the best makan places is Todai Japanese Sushi & Seafood buffet. We went there for like 2-3 times sebab tak larat nak stuffed ourselves with more kebabs! :p

As always, nice pictures!

Hi I’ll be going to HK and Macau, flying to macau 1st, will spend a day and a night there,after that will proceed to HK, will spend another 4-5days at HK, do we need any visa to hk/macau? How about transport to hk from/to macau? Is tat one day one night enough for macau? And may I have the details(include prices and comment) of ur accomod,transport(especially transport to the eateries)? I also heard that HK ppl look down at 內地人, is it better for us to speak in chinese/english? I heard tat they will treat 內地人bad, this makes me worry as I cant speak Cantonese…

p/s: I hv ur blog linked from my blog =) Hv been following ur updates since long time ago.. Like ur detailed post abt traveling and food! Keep going… cheers =D

hi ruth: you can take a ferry to macau, please refer to my macau post. theres 3/4 ferry companies and it costs about rm 140 for return. you can take a cab or a bus. actually most places are quite near to each other. like in macau island we just walk around. u just need to take a bus from macau island to taipa village and coloane village.

i’m not too sure because i spoke to them in cantonese. most hk/macau people are quite unfriendly, so no matter wat u speak it doesn’t make a difference haha

glad tat u like our blog. keep visiting ya

Hi,

I love your blog. Your account of food is really impressive. Hubby and I thinking of short 3D2N free and easy in Hong Kong. What would you recommend that we don’t miss!

Unfortunately, we don’t read chinese, we can speak cantonese..hopefully it’s not too hard to get our food by finger pointing.sighss..

cheers, bonnie

hi bonnie, thanks for your lovely comments. u must go to this australian dairy co. near to jordon station, they serve the best scramble egg in the world. n of coz the whole breakfast in a jiffy experience is not to be missed. they are not just a food outlet, its a good place to experience the HK culture by ordering the breakfast set A, B, C and gulp it all down in 10 min bcoz the queue out there is just too long.

would recommend u to try wantan mee and dim sum too. its very different from we have here .

Just want to say thank you for the great list and the effort of making such comprehensive list. We have used it for our research for our Hong Kong-Macau trip in March this year, which has been a really great trip!

Do check our itinerary: -

hi there, your post is amazing, this the 1st time i browse on which recommend from my friend. Im thinking to plan a trip to HK around Feb with my sis for 5days. which area do you reckon is the best and convenience we can stay? I love nice foods, so def gonna try all the foods you reckon and i love yumcha, which place is the best to feast in? is public transport convenience to access around places? I wanna go to Disneyland too, I saw your stay in Disneyland which amazing, how much is that? I am bit lost of planning the trip, will be good if you can suggest. Thanks~~ Love your post!!

Hi Alice, bridal tea house (RM 200/night ) is nt bad in terms of location, if u dun mind the reli small room n that its located in temple street. if budget is nt an issue, u can try butterfly by wellington at central, or luxe manor at tsimtsatsui.

for yumcha, go to Tim Ho Wan, but be there as early as 945, they are open at 10, and there will be a long queue outside the premise.

Yeah public transport is not an issue, just get urself an octopus card n u can go anywhere u want.

DH is about RM 800 – 1000 per night. Worth it if u have 4 person to share the room

Hi, I’ll be going to Hong Kong in September. There’s just a short trip, only 5D 4N.

Do you mind to send me the details and whereabout to go and whereabout to eat in Hong Kong & Macau.

Besides, may I know more information on hotel, airport transfer & ferry to Macau?
Coz I am planning to go 1Day trip in Macau. Wondering the time enough to rush back to HK at nite.
Kindly advice.
Thank you so much!
=]

Really appreciate it!! Coz I kinda worry hotel is fully booked soon & not enough time to shop in the short period. LOL

Thanks in advance!! =]

Hi Shuet Yee

Thanks for referring to our blog. The good food list tcan be downloaded from our side bar, its an excel file. While for places to go, you can refer to our detailed trip itinerary in year 2009 and 2010. You can click into each of the links to get the details that you wanted – information on hotel, airport transfer & ferry to Macau, etc.

For example, info on ferry to macau can be found here – http://kampungboycitygal.com/2009/10/hk-macau-trip-day-5-leitaria-i-son-ruin-of-st-paul-poon-weng-kee-cookies/
airport transfer info can be found here – http://kampungboycitygal.com/2011/02/hong-kong-day-1-cosmo-kowloon-hotel-bon-bon-cafe-best-che-zai-min/

Day trip to Macau is viable, you can just go to the important land marks and all. Hope it helps.

Hello,
I’m planning to go Hong Kong in February 2012. From the blog post, it seems that going around Hong Kong town is easy but is it safe in Hong Kong town area? Also, I’m planning to stay at Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel, is it far from town?

thanks..

December 8th, 2011 at 3:46 pm
hi pui san, yes it’s safe and convenient to go around kl. it is advisable to stay at hk disneyland only when ur visiting disneyland, just for 1 night for the experience. or else its way too far from town.

ohh.. thanks for the advice.. we booked 2 nights stay in TST, Park Hotel and 2 nights in HKDL hotel as we got the 2 days pass.. Btw, is it easy to walk from TST MTR station to Harbour City and from Harbour City to Avenue of Stars? Also, is it true that the shops such as Quicksilver in Citygate selling apparel at a sale price?

thanks…

Hello! I’m also planning to go HK & Macau in 2012 and now checking out your website for itinerary. Truly your blog is so so helpful When you mentioned “coach and esprit are selling at good price”, may I know are there any particular mall or shop you are referring to? And are there any particular time of the year is considered best time to shop/sales? Thank you
