i think vapor was talking about a HK style cafe right across Yung Kee. It has almost every type of food, milk tea, fish ball fun, curry beef stew, wonton noodle, etc. It is quite famous and lot of celebrities go there for "siu yea" too!

 

yeah, wm07 is right. btw alan, how did u get the chinese characters to show? when my msg got posted, it showed up as "??"

 

I"m using a program call 九方, it pretty easy to use.... u just use the number pad to dial the word...

and did you have ur computer put as a muti-language?? it on XP pro second disk...i'm not sure does it effect the way it shows....

and I think i kinda know which store u talked about...sorry... i'm not good at english-chinese...cause some of the sound don't get me much...I know small amount of

chinese..most of them I forgot....it just happen that I learn more when I met my girlfriend....haha (I didn't pass my high school chinese class before, so.... sheeesh... hey... i thought it would be easy, since the teacher is a white guy)

i did it the ghetto way, i am using mac osx at work, and i copied and pasted words from yahoo hk search pages

 

nice...I love mac too...and I use to have a mac....but the software cost way too much, when I switch to PC.... all the software are free..... free at least... haha

so yeah... if copy and paste works for u...even tho is pain in da @$$....

yeah, was trying to get to asia earlier this year, but as going to hit up beijing before hk .... now it's just hk and shanghai
gt sport, huh? i will go check it out!
as for food, i think relatives will prolly drag us around for all the meals .. doh..
(last time i was in hk was 5 years ago... was in beijing 4 years ago... and then that's it for asia )
but! if i'm still unemployed in nov, i may go back to hk again haha

Hey Vanessa, most of the tuner shops are in Mong Kok near Hak Po St. like Alan said. There's even an official Sparco dealer/showroom there I also hear that there's grey-market garages out in the New Territories, but I've never been to one and can't say for sure.
And like Alan said, watch your bag and your back. HK's gotten kinda (more) ghetto these days... And watch your forehead too, us tall Chinese types have it tough in HK

 

hm... k
thanks for all the advice
anyone want any little things?

 

watch out for those freeway off/on ramps!!

 

have fun.

 

hihi guys...and gals...

anyway...HK is not as hot as i expected, but the air still hard to breath in...kinda stiff..

vanessa...when ever u go out... have your purse infront of you all the time...like tight carry it...my cousin said there is alot of those ppls from China who goto HK for some business...ant they are so pro... u dont really wanna know...those ppls call 自由行 aka free walk....they will cut open your pant or ur purse...and take what ever they can...without notice...scary...

just remember...watch your stuff every second...oh...and also your cell phone if u got one...a lot of those are gone also....haha
