hi all and northasian,
thanks for all your info and advice sharing...
i will be going to HK around end of June. Will be staying in Dorsett Seaview for 5d 4n... afraid not enuf for me to explore..
need your advice on the best place must visit in this short time and the best local food to eat.
we also plan to go macau too for one day... what will be the best place and food to try on?
and in June, is the summer sale on already? will the clothes there at the highest price now?
Is it summer in June? very hot? will it be cold in the night?
thanks
hi, i stayed in Dorsett Seaview for 5D4N during my last trip to HK last month. Be prepared, the rooms are so so small...bt overall is ok if just for some rest at night. Location is really good.
hui liu san dessert shop is a must try as it only opposite the hotel. And the Bou Zai Fan (clay port rice) near the hotel also a must try at night. You can drop by one dim sum stall opposite the 7-eleven as well at night...very nice the siu mai.... it most open at midnight around 11pm. All near the hotel. Tao heung dim sum (i went mongkok) which northasian posted in post #1 very worth to try...very nice and not expensive... 7-11 ginger soya bean (hot) also must try....any breakfast set in any char chan teng near hotel also nice...u can view the menu first before u go in.
I took a walk from hotel (yau ma tei) to Tsim Tsa Tsui harbour...a very nice walk plus good talk with fren to the harbour at night..as u get to see many things along the way..im not sure the time u go will be hot or not...but i went during end of winter..cool cool feeling..veyr nice...
my itinery is that i went to the further place first...like disneyland..ocean park..tung chung citygate outlet mall, stanley market. then 3rd /4th days go to the peak...lankwai fong...causeway bay..central..those in the middle de...then second alst day / last day only sapu berabis (shopping) in mongkok / TST. then check out...and sayonara...
the above info for your reference only....thanks.. hope u enjoy your trip...
