But we were told their air-con was down, the old boss didn&#8217;t welcome us in, he said we had to wait for 2 hours to get a seat! What?! The teahouse was empty leh! Why don&#8217;t he let us in? We don&#8217;t mind the air-con~~ but I have no idea why.. >.< So that's the first meal of the day, LEMONS! Hahaa..\n\nOpposite was another \u8336\u9910\u5385~ but all soupy stuffs on the menu dun really attract me, given my heart is thinking all about \u867e\u80f6\uff0c\u70e7\u5356\uff0c\u53c9\u70e7\u5305\uff01lol.. ordered a fishball soup in d end. To my surprise, their fishballs are reallly springy and tasty!! They have this \u4e09\u5b9d that Pail has ordered~ i dun rmbr wad are they exactly.. fish balls, meat balls and squid balls? Haha.. I only remembered mine was meatballs with wanton noodles =p~\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"..\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/20100220-hk2010\/day3-fishball1.jpg\" width=\"600\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"..\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/20100220-hk2010\/day3-fishball2.jpg\" width=\"600\"><\/p>\n<p>We totally experienced the packed and quick lifestyle Hongkies, squeeze squeeze squeeze and rush rush rush! Haha.. they will not stand and wait for u to leave the table, the boss will ask customers to share tables~ known as \u642d\u53f0 <em>in Cantonese<\/em>. Even the way they share tables is also something new to us. Normally we sit face-to-face, but boss will ask us to sit side-by-side instead, so that the \u642d\u53f0 people can share the table! Hahaa.. it&#8217;s so funny and awkward to us, but probably something very common to them, the 2 OLs who shared the table couldn&#8217;t stop yakking even when we are quietly sitting right in front of them. LOL~~ <em>Interesting<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u4f11\u606f\u662f\u4e3a\u4e86\u8d70\u66f4\u591a\u7684\u8def\uff0c\u5403\u9971\u662f\u4e3a\u4e86\u901b\u66f4\u591a\u7684\u8857\uff01<\/p>\n<p>The main reason why we are at Central&#8230; i.e. The 4-Storey H&#038;M Store! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"..\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/20100220-hk2010\/day3-h&#038;m.jpg\" width=\"600\"><\/p>\n<p>Pail only managed to find a cardigan, while I got a dress, 2 tops for myself.. could have got more definitely. The jackets at H&#038;M are sooooooooo attractive, I held back feeling worried about the overweight luggages. At the same time, the angelSuki beat the devilSuki in my head, exclaiming, &#8220;THIS IS A BUDGET TRIP! PUT THAT BACK TO THE SHELVES~~&#8221; Shopping was successfullly curbed to minimum damages. Hmmmm seriously, I think the real reason behind angelSuki&#8217;s victory, was because of the absense of an evil shopping kaki. (Yes, it&#8217;s you, Miss Irony!!). LOL!!<\/p>\n<p>After which, we passed by a bakery shop, there I couldn&#8217;t resisssst EGG TARTS again~~~ Hee hee..<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"..\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/20100220-hk2010\/day3-eggtart.jpg\" width=\"600\"><\/p>\n<p>\u5403\u4e5f\u5403\u9971\u4e86\uff0c\u901b\u8857\u4e5f\u901b\u591f\u4e86\uff0c\u662f\u89c2\u5149\u7684\u65f6\u5019\u4e86\u3002Find this overhead bridge verrry familiar?

I also wanted to look for the famous Nee Soon Milk Company at Causeway Bay, but following the streetname\/unit number I found online, I saw the signboard but I think it&#8217;s been closed down already?! Sad.. but because of this, we happened to see where and how to board on the tramways, as well as seeing MUJI \/ UNIQLO stores along the road! Hehehe.. \u585e\u7fc1\u5931\u99ac\uff0c\u7109\u77e5\u975e\u798f indeed! The $73 shirt dress I&#8217;ve been longing to get at Muji, I got it at $45!
