Day 12 in Hong Kong: more bakeware shopping and book shopping

On Day 12, we had yet another day out. We did a fair bit of shopping!

We started the day off by visiting the supermarket to source for more stuff we could possibly buy. I love their Hello Kitty cup noodles! Got 2 of them for myself!

They also have large cups of 出前一丁! I didn't get these though as they were too large..

I found canned Campbell pasta sauce! These probably beat using their soup for pasta sauces. 

 

I found this really adorable Hello Kitty sandwich make too! The exterior is prettier than what we have in Singapore! A pity it was close to 50 dollars.. else I would have gotten it! 

We had lunch at Green River Restaurant. The food was pretty good and we did end up visiting the Green Restaurant near us for many subsequent meals. 

Fried rice.

Satay beef macaroni (I LOVE SATAY BEEF!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Iced red bean drink with a soft serve ice cream!

Braised pork and salted veg rice

Fried Beef Kway Teow.

We took a bus to Whampoa Gardens to visit the arcade again! 

The hubby, my bil and I played a few more games and ended up with close to 3k tickets.

We exchanged them for some files, gundams and drinks.

I then got another book from the Popular in Whampoa Garden! I love using my Popular Card there for 10% extra discount! 

We then headed down to Mongkok (again!) for more shopping. This time round, we were looking for light switches.. We had tea at Yee Shun Milk Company. 

Egg custard!

Milk custard!

Here's what they offer!

I then made another trip to Twinsco! (: 

I left Twinsco a happier person with more buys! 

The hubby and I then split up from the family to go shopping for light switches.. There was a shop in Shanghai Street that offered many light switches.

We wanted to get these... but ended up not getting them as it'd cost us 400+ sgd to change all the switches in our unit.. and it was money we could save up and spend else where.. 

But they really did have very nice switches! 

I love these the most! The round switches were lovely! 

We then made our way to popo's for dinner. I realised that in Hong Kong, the traffic lights allow for people to cross across the junctions! So efficient! I wish we had this in Singapore! 

After dinner at popo's, we headed home and did some packing. I was hungry at around mid night so yipo took the 3 of us (Danny, the hubby and I) out for supper! I love how the Char Chan Tings open till late and even offer delivery! We had piping hot food! 

Interestingly, this is how their dried Wonton noodles is like! It uses Oyster Sauce instead of the mixture we have here in Singapore.

I love Hong Kong and I love the food in Hong Kong! The hubby is ALMOST tempted enough to wanna return to Hong Kong... but it's definitely a no for me cos' I still can't speak Cantonese! 

Day 11 in Hong Kong: our 'mini' wedding dinner in HK and New Town Plaza again!

On Day 11, we had our 'mini' Hong Kong wedding. As you may know, we got married in January this year. The hubby is from Hong Kong and has many family and friends there. Therefore, we had a dinner when we returned home to offer tea to our elders. 

We started the day off at Dragon Centre in Sham Shui Po. The mall even had an indoor roller coaster at the top level.. however, I think it's ceased operation as the response was rather poor. 

For brunch, we had Shanghai food. 

I love pan fried buns.

Dumpling seaweed soup. Seaweed soups is so my childhood food!

Xiao Long Bao.

Jellyfish with beef.

This egg dish was just so very good. I wanna replicate it! 

Pan fried dumplings.

Famous Shanghai noodles.

We then did some shopping where I got some falsies (only 10sgd for 10 pairs) and a skirt for my sister. My bil wasn't feeling too well so my mil took him home to rest while the hubby took me to Sha Tin to shop more. 

Sha Tin is somewhere near town and Ah Gong lives in Sha Tin. I love the New Town Plaza in Sha Tin. It's a huge mall with 3 sectors. There's even a mini Snoopy's World there.. and I heard that it's really old but still attractive! 

School bus!

Playground for the little ones.

They even have a free Canoe ride! 

Tiny but worth popping by if you love Snoopy! 

We then went supermarket shopping. I love the Japanese supermarket! We got these 2 Haagen-Dazs sandwiches and I am so in love with the berries one! 

I love the Japanese departmental store.. and I got myself 3 of these devices to make chocolate shells for filled pralines! I was so excited to have found them as I have never seen such a device since I started baking couple years back!

I then went shopping at The Commercial Press and got myself another cookbook and 3 more novels! I'm so in love with reading novels once again! 

We then made our way home to rest for a while more before dinner. 

Pa returned from his shopping and he bought me a torch!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was truly surprised and excited... the hubby totally rolled his eyes and prayed that I wouldn't burn the house down. I'm so excited to use this gadget soon! Like real soon! 

For dinner, we met with Yipo and family for dinner. Love is truly dining with one's family. It's such simple pleasures that many fail to cherish.

I love my 'new' family!
