I've had ramen quite a few times in Japan already so... maybe I'll skip the HK shops... or I guess I'll try one for comparison sake.

Not dry at all, there's probably like 200g of fat in there 
The pile on top isn't noodles btw, it's sprouts, garlic, and pork fat
This is a small size noodles, so 300g of noodles (which is still a lot, I couldn't finish the noodles, no way)

I thought it was a good place to watch it so maybe check it out. I know prior to my trip I just googled "where to watch canucks games in hong kong" and a bunch of stuff came up. My hotel was a few blocks from Manchester so I opted for this one.

Brunei is Boring as f***. You might as well skip that and head to Sarawak, Malaysia or Kota Kinabalu in Sabah.

^ agreed. Brunei is like a 2 day trip.
I'd recommend Mulu Caves in Sarawak if you're feeling adventurous..

What cell phone plans you guys use in HK? I will be using an unlocked ip4
Must have:
Local call minutes
Dataplan (3G)
Cheap international text
Optional:
Cheap international rates to call Canada
I remember using 3 there for $200 hkd for the stuff I have above.
What about when travelling in Asia?

I'm not sure if any of you guys are photog buffs and what not but the talk of the town lately is this big ass inflatable rubber ducky in TST.
It starts today and will be here for a month.
Here is a pic someone uploaded on my fb this morning.

You should see the jewelry stores, all the mainland people are buying up all the gold there. The Harbor center down where the big duck is, it's a crazy today (Saturday), people are pushing you from behind and it's like people never seen a floating duck in the water before.  [/URL]

Currently in Hong Kong right now. Is it just me, or are the people here getting more and more rude? I know it's the season where mainlanders come here to shop, but I'm talking about locals here. I used to come back every summer when I was a kid..and my most recent trip here was last summer around this time of the year. The people here never seemed to bother me before, but this time around, even just walking on the street bothers the hell out of me. Everyone seems to be in such a hurry.. pushing and shoving becomes a regular thing almost everyday. And god forbid it begins to rain lightly. Umbrellas pop up left right and center. I've lost count of how many open umbrellas i've taken to the head over the last week and a half. I like this place, but man do I hate the people here. Maybe I'm yelling at a cloud here.  | |

What I have noticed a WAY WAY WAY more mainland people coming in. Well I guess in a way that changes the way locals behave - they are becoming much less tolerant of mainland chinese.
I don't like going to the areas where mainland tourists go, mostly because of all the smoke. Obviously I don't mind crowded places, otherwise I never would have moved there. But the amount of smoke has gotten to the point where walking around areas like CWB or TST is like being in a crowded smokey izakaya in Japan - and I avoid those as much as I can. It's truly disgusting
