We arrived in Hong Kong around 6:00pm. After leaving the Arrival Hall, there was a row of transportation companies up ahead, you can't miss them... Ours is Vigor :)
Just go up to the counter, register then wait for the attendant to bring us to the bus departure halls, about 5-10mins walk...
Before that, we bought the extremely useful Airport Express Travel Pass at the MTR counter (Actually we tried to buy the pass via online using HSBC as there a discount. Unfortunately the transaction never got through, we asked the attendant about it and got to know there was a system error with HSBC. There were other tourists facing the same problem...)
Bus trip took about 45mins, and here we are :)
The room is modernly designed and is a lot smaller than the previous trip
And something interesting is the hotel calls... "the Magic Glass" :P
There's a switch next to the bed and another one just above the toilet to turn it on and off
Plus something useful, heated mirror :)
You don't have to wipe the mirror every time you take a shower:
We left our luggage in the room and went down for dinner. There's a steamboat shop nearby which we found using a very useful Hong Kong food website
Dinner (Total spent: HKD226)
The weather was actually colder than expected... perfect for something hot!
It's a small shop, all of the customers are locals:
Not sure what this is, seems like soya sauce with chilli, but taste better than that... maybe they cooked the soya sauce?
Fantastic mixed seafood balls (consists of prawn, squid, fish and pork balls)!
I always wonder why meat looks and tastes so much better than anywhere other than Malaysia :x
it's sliced pork, we ordered also fish ("wan yu"), vegetables ("tong ou") and udon noodles... forgot to take photos as we were busy enjoying the food :P
We ordered the clear soup, it come with a big chunk of toufu :)
The dinner cost only HKD182!
Address: G/F, 130 Electric Road, Fortress Hill, North Point
We took a stroll after dinner and bumped across a dessert shop, pretty crowded so we reckoned that it's gonna be good :)
HKD44 (HKD22 per bowl) for the dessert :)
OK... let's call it a night, Day 2 coming soon :)

We ordered toufu far and black sesame, awesome :)
Special thing about the toufu far is it comes in a wooden bowl and you add sugar to taste, different from what we have back home...
OK... let's call it a night, Day 2 coming soon :)
