Well, we also ate IN Hong Kong a bit and I took you to my favorite 24 hour restaurant near Kwai Fong, but you didn't really like it all that much if memory serves. I think we also did one or two non-Chinese places as well. Remember when we were in Kwai Fong and these two restaurants managers started arguing over us over which of their restaurants to eat?? LoL, that was bizarre. Hope that helps.
32	Mr X Sat 4/26/2008 4:34a	Yup, I remember that Kwai Fong place (I DID like it, but one dish was kinda weird I thought...IIRC there were some weird bones in there that freaked me out since it should've been a boneless dish lol). Yeah, I remember the managers lol. It's funny because I remember eating (of course, we obviously ate over those couple of days), but aside from the McDonalds breakfast (how LAME!?) I don't really remember much about the food but I do remember it was really freakin good. Lots of stir fried stuff, lots of rice, all that...but somehow better than Japan (for what it was...in Japan I really love the tonkatsu and the beef dishes and all that). FWIW my recollection of that trip was FILLED with bizarre memories such as you trying to catch some scary, rickety, possibly kidnappy bus in the middle of the night for 13 cents instead of letting me pay the three bucks for a taxi. :p It was a great trip, I'll never forget it. I LOVE Hong Kong, what an amazing city! Thanks for the call, just shot you an email.
33	WorldDisney Sat 4/26/2008 4:52a	^^Yep, just shot you one right back ;). Yeah, its funny, I *also* can't remember any of the other specific places we ate in Hong Kong other than that place (but mainly because I ALWAYS eat there everytime I'm in Hong Kong--I've taken two ex girlfriends there, a local expat there and you ;)). Great place that's 24 hours and the menu the size of a Harry Potter novel ;). I guess we're just getting old lol, I don't even remember the McDonalds, but yep the food is great in Hong Kong. I'm rarely dissappointed, but as long as their meat in it, I'm usually pretty happy ;). <<FWIW my recollection of that trip was FILLED with bizarre memories such as you trying to catch some scary, rickety, possibly kidnappy bus in the middle of the night for 13 cents instead of letting me pay the three bucks for a taxi. :p>> Man, will you EVER let that go??? They are called light buses and used by the locals all over Hong Kong when most of the regular buses go down. Yeah, I was on budget and in my 'backpacker mode' since I was in Thailand two weeks before I met up with you, so I was use to pinching pennies by then lol. I took them a few more times a few months later too and they really drive like the bus drivers here in Korea, so I'm VERY use to it ;).
34	WorldDisney Sat 4/26/2008 4:54a	WAIT!!! Another restaurant just came to me: In Kowloon, I took you to a restaurant I had eaten a few times before and also liked. It was a smaller one and more 'mom and pop' tone, but REALLY good too :). I think it was our 3rd night there I took you there.
35	Mr X Sat 4/26/2008 5:09a	***the menu the size of a Harry Potter novel*** LMAO!
36	Mr X Sat 4/26/2008 5:12a	***I don't even remember the McDonalds*** I totally remembered that because I was annoyed that we were eating there (but we didn't have much time), but also I was impressed that they served breakfast stuff after breakfast time, and also there was a McCafe there too (first time I ever saw one of those).
37	WorldDisney Sat 4/26/2008 5:19a	^^LOL, now its alll coming back!! Yeah, we ate at our McDonalds near our hotel, the morning we headed to HKDL IIRC? Yeah, I think I wanted to eat there because I miss pancakes sooo much lol. Anytime I'm in Japan or Hong Kong and was actually UP in the mornings, that's where I go. At the time, we didn't have a breakfast menu in Korea and pancakes in general are non-existant, BUT we have it now :).
38	Mr X Sat 4/26/2008 5:20a	***They are called light buses and used by the locals all over Hong Kong when most of the regular buses go down.*** Funny as it was at the time (and I'd have been WAY more into it if I'd had more time to kill than just a couple of days), I sure wish they had something like that in Tokyo! Miss the last train and your ONLY options are a) stay out all night, b) pay $100 or more for a taxi, or c) pay $50-60 and stay in a coffin hotel!
39	WorldDisney Sat 4/26/2008 5:27a	Yeah, that what sucks about Japan :(. As much as I loved living there, I hated the fact that I always had to decide if I was going to go home at a 'late' 11:30 or stay all freaking night, which I did a few times, but not fun when you are ready to go home by 2 am :(. But for HK, its not a problem. Besides the fact the Taxi's are reasonable, yeah, just grab a light bus for under a dollar and you can get home all hours of the night (you just have to know WHICH bus to take and where to get it ;)). Here in Korea, I never spend more than $5-6 to get home in a taxi, one of the things I love about living here.
