Tuesday. Today my mom came over to my aunts at 12ish, i did some laundry, then headed out at 2ish to get some lunch. The place I wanted to try, which was a noodle place that is downstairs was packed, and I didn't really feel like sitting with unknown people so we went to Olympian City to see what there was to eat, we went to eat at the Modern China Restaurant, the one with the terracotta soldier that I have been eyeing for over a year, since I pass by everyday and there's always a queue. We had afternoon tea, which starts at 2:30pm and that was when I was there, We ordered Set A and Set B. Set A had 4 xiao long baos and a plate of spicy sichuan chicken and Set B had a salty chicken (fried) with shanghai noodles (udon). Both were small portions, I want to go for dinner one day, and order the original size. If it's the same, I will be let down!!

Then we headed to Central, well Hong Kong first to see IFC tower, cause I had to find a bathroom so we went to IFC >___< Which was a place my mom was interested too. It's the tallest one in Hong Kong! International Finance Commercial building, I think that's what it's called. Then we walked to Central, and I had no clue where I was going, but we went to the place my mom looked for..it's actually in LKF...WOW...so I was there all the time!! I guess LKF used to be one street, now it's multiple...so the building my mom was looking for is gone..and part of LKF now..heh..how things have changed!! It's actually right outside Billion LOL. Then we headed back. Then SUSHI! at sushi 1....with nicky :)

I ate about half, since it's so big, and then some of those flat rice noodles with sauce/peanut sauce? It wasn't that good..the congee was pretty okay. She stayed til about 1230 then left, which meant I went back to sleep til 2pm. Then i slowly..got ready for my pedicare appt at 3...and I left at 240..which meant i was late...to beauty par zai..got there at 315. Did the pedi..looks nice!

Friday. Writing this from memory, I actually have no clue what I did in the morning, I think i woke up extremely late...and my mom came over, and we went downstairs to get something small. I had toast with peanut butter..and red bean shake and my mom got toast too, but with no peanut butter with the same drink. Then I guess we went back to the apt and waited until it was almost dinner time, then went over to my grandmas. Nicky and chaky ditched :( so alan and I went to sushi1 afterwards..i was only 30 mins late...haha. The sushi1 at causeway sucked!! Waiting outside was the worst..soo hot! For an hour :( Went to LKF...met up with alan's friend...from BU, who's part of his "honors" fraternity..lol..and some of their friends...tried a fishbowl at Coconutz...then went to another bar for mojitos, ended up getting half price...and then another one for hookah and a horrible strawberry daquiri. Craved poutine..and I know of the fab place Joanie introduced me to last year..so got some poutine fries with alan and his friend. Then homeee I went. On the bus..then a taxi.

Saturday. Went to dimsum with family again. Just four of us. I was still lacking sleep, but I needed to eat..so I went. Extra early!!! We left at 11am. Came back at 1 then my aunt and mom went to Kwai Fong, to meet up my other aunt to go shopping. I SLEPT. Then woke up to go eat a little bit of dinner at Sun Fat with everyone....wasn't feeling well...I met up ronnie after...to go eat dinner..again...barely touched my food. SIGH, just was really hot. Gave him some of the portion I didn't eat since I didn't wanna get him sick. We went to this japanese restaurant in Tsim Sha Tsui called Ootoya. Apparently everything is imporated daily from japan? I wasn't really feeing the food, was just burning hot, what a bummer. Then we went to the Charlie Brown Cafe!!! so I was very happy. Ronnie was my photographer ahahaha. Got me a drink, I got a cold one and he got a hot one which I was even more excited for cause it had charlie's head on it!! I felt a whole lot better after coming here. There were actually a lot of people...and men!! HAAHA. Afterwards, we went to Eyebar on the 30th floor of iSquare. It's part of a restaurant called Nanhai No.1 I think it's suppose to be very pricey dinner...but the atmosphere was veryyy nice, view was good while walking, I think you get a better view if you have dinner there..bar area was kinda small, but I liked it. He ordered a glass of merlot...and I got a lychee mojito that I been wanting to try...then I got a "special" long island. Everything was extra strong, lol thanks ronnie hahaa. Then I finally tried patron!! We got two shots of patron, the platnum one. Start off with the best haaha. $280 per a shot! And it comes in a glass so you just sip it...there's literrally no after taste since it goes away so fast. So we just chilled, then the manager/owner came over to talk...they were just drinking whiskey, but I'm not a fan of that so I sipped on my long island. Then at 2am, we left, took a taxi back to the apt. Nice night..exhausted after though. Good catching up.
tofu and other stuff...js didnt take pics..with family

Sunday. One of the places I been wanting to go, and have planned to go was Cafe Habitu! I took my mom and my aunt came along...it was in Elements in Kowloon MTR. I guess if you're an avid coffee drinker you'd like it...I thought it was okay, really cute though, heart shaped lattee! I got pasta carbonara as I haven't eaten and I treated them to coffee and crossiant sandwiches. It was like $40hkd for a cup and $43 per a crossiant and $75 for my pasta. It's like a better version of starbucks, but I was still feeling under the weather, so I was like Ehhh..didn't even eat dinner after..just wasn't hungry. :( Just got orange juice on the way back..was hoping it would make me feel a little better. So later at night, I ended up walking all the way to olympian city to get mcdonalds...whack. Good thing the person who took my order was a good sport and helped me figure out what i wanted LOL. I got a free coke zero too..some promo. I'm currently beside the cat on the couch stealing wifi..THANK GOD, with no ac or fan. I been stuck using my aunt's pc which is slow as hell as the wifi wasn't working that i usually steal from, but i legit sat there for 30 mins trying to load tumblr. So i got very annoyed, and took my phone to the living room to see if there's wifi, and alas, after 3 days, there is!!!! I wonder if the cat can sleep through my typing.., no it just turned around to watch me type LOL
i saw this cafe on tumblr BEFORE i went to HK and made it a goal to go there and eat/drink take pics :)
soo gorgeous right??
