For the first few days in Hong Kong, I tried to shop for clothes and shoes for Zara, but I couldn’t find anything. They were either the upmarket brands where every thing are ridiculously priced (even after discount); or they are cheap low quality stuff sold in the markets. The more popular local brands like Giordano or Bossini only have clothes for kids 3yrs and above. I was getting disappointed with the shopping.<\/p>\n

On the last day, however, I saw there was a sale on in Zara! I love the kids clothes from Zara, they are ideal for Zara because she is tall and lean; most of the other international brands like Osh Kosh and Mother Care do not fit her well because they are made for bigger size kids.<\/p>\n

Here are the loot I got for her, most of them are from Zara (which became more affordable after discount).
\n<\/a>Baby doll clothes are very popular now in Hong Kong. People with flat tummy wearing ‘maternity’ looking blouse. I got myself one which will cater for the growing tummy. I also got myself a pair of sandals and a bag.<\/p>\n

And what is going to Hong Kong without buying the extremely good quality dried sea produce\/??. I got the viagra prawns<\/a> mentioned in Domestic Rat’s<\/a> blog too, but they are from Southern China and not Sarawak. I bought double of everything below, because I have to give them to MIL as gifts for keeping an eye on Zara and maid during the time I was away. <\/a><\/p>\n

I got her a watering can from Hong Kong too, she really loves it, and immediately wanted to help Kakak water the plants.<\/p>\n

I wonder when I’ll go to Hong Kong again (the last time I went was 20yrs ago with my mum and sis), it’s not a holiday destination I have in mind. So I’ll wait for my next business trip.<\/p>\n

What I like about Hong Kong
\n~ The transport system, cabs, busses, MTR are very good and extensive.
\n~ The porridge in Hong Kong is superb, so creamy and delicious. Anybody knows how to make porridge like the ones you find in Hong Kong?
\n~ The roast goose is to die for.<\/p>\n

What I don’t like about Hong Kong
\n~ People smoke indoor, in buildings, in restaurants. Blech!
\n~ Food or dishes whipped out from restaurants are extremely salty for my liking.
\n~ Every where is so crowded, and there’s no green lungs!<\/p>\n
