Good luck guys and welcome to the grind.

It will help to get out in the open and wilderness once in a while. I don't get how so many people can live in the city and never leave.. I know someone who never leaves HK island, EVER. Won't even go to TST... :fulloffuck: (I'm basically the same way the other way around.. nothing there for me that isn't closer/better/cheaper)

HK has over 440 square KM of park land... There are so many hiking trails and outdoor things to do.. go canoeing, wakeboarding, hang gliding, bike riding, anything... Basically all the outdoor stuff people rave about in Vancouver is here... And you can do some of it all year round.. Winter hiking is nice, since the air is dry and the skies are clear. You will actually need to wear very warm winter clothes - depending on how high you go, you will be approaching 0C or lower I think!

Then there are all the outlying islands, etc... get out of the city, HK isn't as crowded as you think it is. I moved out of the city after 4 years and now I have a nice open view with lots of green all year round, and I get to see monkeys and cobras :fuckyea:

Anyone use the 3 network 88$ unlimited data/text/call prepaid plan thing? I will be in HK for around 2 weeks. What's the best solution for me?

any new attractions at hk lately or soon to be built?

anybody hit up shen zhen while in hk ? how you guys like it there? its just a 45 mins train ride to get there

45min train ride sounds more like Dongguan but no, I have been to neither SZ or DG :ifyouknow:

if you from hong kong island, it takes more than 45 mins for sure!!!

whats there to look at in Dongguan ?

^ Lots of stuff :ifyouknow:

If you guys are Bruce Lee fans you should go check out the Bruce Lee exhibition they have going on right now in Shatin at the HK Heritage Museum. Got some really neat stuff there, I would say in particular what I found really interesting was reading Bruce's notes for the fight scenes in his movies, very detailed. I think it only cost 10$ hongkie to go in

Wednesdays are free :fullofwin:

Disney Land building new Marvel ride soon.

But there are so many other rides there already ... :ifyouknow:

What does this even mean? lol

which city do you guys think is more better between hong kong and Taipei?
-shopping
-attractions
-people
-transportation
-beauty wise

It's only an < 1hr flight apart. Why not visit both? Airfares between the two city is very cheap.

:ifyouknow:

Anyone know how to get into the TVB studios for tours and shit? Maybe even participate in the taping of super trio etc.?

Are the luxury brands in Hong Kong cheaper than Macau? wondering because Macau is quite dead in the hotel malls while Hk is packed with shoppers

Pretty sure HK is cheaper than Macau for luxury goods.

clubs & whores

thank me later.

you tried ?

My friend is heading to HK and his friend said she's gonna take him to some "God of Cooking" Cha Siu place? I didn't know about this when I went last year ... :(
Anyone know more about this?
Is it made by the one and only?

Are you asking where the best char siu place is?

Yes and no ... lol where is the best char siu?
My friend is heading to HK this Sunday, and he told me his friend is taking him to a place that's literally called "食神" as soon as he gets off the plane... Just wondering if anyone's been there and is it really that good.

I don't know why, but I laughed like a fucking idiot when I saw this :rofl:

Never heard of a place called that :lawl:

My favourite place for cha siu is Joy Hing in Wan Chai.

As for best, it's subjective of course... It's weird but I find that I can't really take word of HK people on restaurant recommendations. More often than not, I disagree with people for what is good. I think a lot of people get 'fooled' by the fanciest/newest/trendiest places and don't really think about the actual FOOD...
