Alright back to me day. So today I was supposed to go get my haircut.
Woke up early, and in more epic asian fashion. I had to camera whore myself out and take some "sexy" before photos.... Fob level +10 points
First went to the hospital for 3 hours as I hung out with grandma as she did acupuncture treatment. She was doing great and had alot of energy during the process. Hung out with her some more after the session was over.
So met up with Ricky and walked around Times Square for a bit doing some shopping. Walked into a book store. Amusing Story.
Me: Hey ricky... can i take these out to look at them?
Ricky: um... i'm not sure....
Me: so how the heck do i know if its good then?
Ricky: Judge a book by its cover.
Ok ... wow after typing that out... that was extremely lame. Lame times 100... i'm literally shaking my head right now. However, I promised to track my progress so clearly HK has not only foberized me, but my sense of humour is declining too....
sigh..
The little sign there claims it to be "perhaps the most expensive commercial lens in the world" . It was retailing for $207,000 HKD. Ricky was skeptical of it being the most expensive..
So we walked towards the place ricky got his hair cut last time... only to find it was gone...
Fail.
This was so dumb. So Boissini was selling M&Ms for 9 bucks but the PACKAGING would give 20% off the next purchase if you use it. Literally.. the packaging.. So when we bought our clothes and the M&M's... they opened the package and emptied it out into this massive plastic wrap....
No comment.
The results:
Ok so... pretty much everyones reaction is gonna be... it looks the freaking same. And yea... i'm too conservative and my hair is too "thick and hard" to foberize well. I do notice the subtle differences and the guy was actually pretty good. i would recommend ppl to go there. Not bad.
Had about an hour and a bit to spare after so went with Ricky to buy some stuff at G2000. But the dinner highlight of the night was Buffet dinner at Harbour Grand Hotel.
Ok here comes the food!
Oysters, uni, salmon sushi, Conch, lobster claw and scallop sashimi.
2nd Plate:
Peking Duck, Choi (need my veggies), fried rice, dim sum, and FOIE GRAS. OMG... so amazing.. can't believe they had this here.
More oysters, Octopus, Scallop, Salmon Sashimi
uhh.. i kinda ate half of this before taking a picture my bad...
Shark fin soup (fake but not bad), uni, alaskan crab, foie gras, and roast beef
5th plate:
picture take fail..
but i did have a 5th plate and it contained some korean food. Forgot what it was. at this point i had to force myself to stop eating oysters before i get mercury poisoning.
"Special, sea something... I think it was just conch.. but they called it Sea Whelk." Shrugh.
Dessert Part 1.
um... i dont remember much of the names. The only thing was the Bird's nest with double boiled egg (can you guess which one it is?)
8th plate:
Crepe with.. too much sauce and ice cream.. oops
So after dinner, went to "Sugar" in tai Koo. It was at the East Hotel. The view was absolutely amazing and the weather was gorgeous.
Ben needed to take a small bus back to Tsuen wan.. Mad lucky guy. The driver only had space for one and there were 4 of us waving the bus in.. he almost didn't stop but Ben got lucky. Or else he might still be waiting for a bus.
So thats my day. So this is it. Final week. I ask that all souvenir requests be given now. You have until wednesday (might even be too late). So this is your reward blog readers. You will get exclusive access to the souvenir request list (obviously I can't fulfill ALL of them but i'll do my best).
Later days!
