My trip to Hong Kong last March was very memorable because (1) it was my first out of the country trip without my family (2) it my first out of country trip with Toby.


For our first day (more like night) in Hong Kong, our flight was originally at 3 pm. However, it got delayed twice and we ended up leaving Manila around 8 pm already. Thanks to Air Asia. As soon as we got to Hong Kong, we checked in our luggage at the hotel and went straight to Lan Kwai Fong. (I shared my experience in my previous post here.)

The next morning, our stomachs were grumbling and ready to stuff ourselves with as much Chinese food possible. I did my research and made an extensive list of restaurants we to try. At the top of my list, Lin Yeung.


My first time to try Yum Cha or Chinese style brunch where you eat dim sum and drink tea


Hong Kong is divided into three parts: Hong Kong, Kowloon, and New Territories. The latter is the residential and provincial area. For our second day, we toured the Hong Kong side. One of the most famous places to go here was the Victoria Peak.


Despite how cold the weather was, I still felt the need to get a cone of ice cream.

The cheesiest thing I've ever done. We wrote a note and hung it at the peak.



My turn to take your photos!

Wan Chai is full of hipster coffee shops







My first time to try egg waffles




My first time to eat at Michelin star restaurant Din Tai Fung

For our third day, we discovered more about Kowloon. Of course, we had to go visit the Big Buddha. It takes half the day to go around so make sure to allocate enough time so you don't miss anything.

Shopping time at Mongkok

Another Michellin star restaurant, One Dimsum




Ended the night at the Ritz-Carlton

For our last day, our flight was at 5 pm. We had lunch (again) at Toby's favorite restaurant, Turkish House, then squeezed in some last minute shopping. If you wanna see more of how our trip went, watch my most recent vlog entry. Enjoy!
