The Madame Tussauds Wax Museum (香港杜莎夫人蜡像馆) located at The Peak Tower, houses nearly 100 wax figures of internationally known personalities, breaking them down into categories such as Hong Kong Glamour, Music Icons, Historical and National Heroes, The Champions and World Premiere. At the entrance, we were welcomed by the renowned Malaysian superstar, Michelle Yeoh (杨紫琼). And Jackie Chan (成龙) was just somewhere behind us :p

Wagamama at Wintergarden Brisbane

Wagamama, a modern Japanese noodle bar at Wintergarden Brisbane which we visited for lunch on last Sunday. I honestly think that their meals are  grossly overpriced and definitely not worth the money that we paid for.

Hong Kong Trip Day 4: Hakka Hut Dim Sum and Hakka Cuisine （客家好棧）

I find it difficult to travel from one place to another without having an actual local map or GPS in our hands. The iPad and iPhones didn't come in handy at all when they aren't subscribed to any 3G data roaming when we were in Hong Kong.

Daorae Korean BBQ Restaurant at Bayan Point Penang

I've got a sudden crave for Korean food just now, so I decided to dig out these mouth-watering Korean BBQ pix which have been sitting on my hard drive for quite some time. Daorae Korean BBQ was the restaurant we visited with cozy environment, coupled with delicious food and refreshing roasted rice tea.

Hong Kong Trip Day 3: Ocean Park (海洋公园) Ocean Cafe (海洋冰室)

Thank goodness! I managed to shake off some weight that I gained (not sure if I gain any since there were so much of walking and sweating involved) from our 6 days trip in Hong Kong. We spent most of our time tasting the local food and snacks, wherever and whenever possible besides sight-seeing. When we were in Ocean Park, I found majority of the food they sell were hotdogs, burgers, pizzas, or some other fried food which are definitely too heaty for such hot weather. My recommendation is this air-conditioned Ocean Cafe (they named it Cafe Ocean instead, or it should be read from the other way?) that offers a comfy dining area and decent proper meals.

Full House Sunway Pyramid: First Visit

During our stay in KL, we paid a visit to Full House at Sunway Pyramid for the very first time. I've seen a lot of promising photos of this restaurant before, online via some bloggers' blogs. We were deeply impressed by the man-made front yard with artificial turf, wooden fence and a mini cooper on display.

Hong Kong Trip Day 3: Ocean Park (海洋公园) Sea Jelly Fish and Cable Car

Ocean Park is separated on two different sides of a mountain and wide swaths of sea. In order to travel from the WaterFront to the Summit or vice versa, you'll get to choose between cable cars or Ocean Express funicular train. We chose to take cable car first and train second.

Hong Kong Trip Day 3: The Peak Tram (山顶缆车) and Sky Terrace (凌霄阁摩天台)

I skipped a little bit from the Ocean Park (海洋公园) taking you guys to The Peak Tower situated 396 meters above sea level. On our way heading to The Peak Tram Station located at Central's Garden Road St. Joseph Building, we walked pass these two iconic buildings namely the Bank of China Tower (中銀大廈) and the Cheung Kong Center (長江集團中心), incredibly stunning!

Dinner Buffet at Tao Cuisine & Lounge Auto City

A bunch of us went to have Tao Cuisine somewhere in the mid of May, which only cost us about RM25 ++ per person. Yep, those who were born in May are most likely to consider themselves lucky as they'll get to enjoy 50% discount off the buffet.

Hong Kong Trip Day 2: Cosmic Guest House in Tsim Sha Tsui

Our second and third night accommodation was at the Cosmic Guest House (宇宙宾馆), located in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui (尖沙咀). After a long tired day, we thought that we could finally take a good rest in a nice and comfy room but who knows, things were just the opposite, no good rest, no nice and comfy room, and definitely no good night sleep *unhappy* It felt as if we have fallen from heaven to hell, compared to our first night accommodation at the Disney's Hollywood Hotel.
