Night time in Hong Kong

Saturday night found us hitting the shops with the rest of Hong Kong. It was a great atmosphere around Granville Road and I actually found a fantastic 2 layer hiking jacket for under 25 pounds. Like in Singapore, some shops sell sample-sized perfumes and skin products by brands that are normally really expensive such as Lancome, Bulgari and Clarins. We came out with a bag full of goodies from one place. After all that shopping, it was time for some contemporary Chinese cuisine at a trendy place in Knutsford Road. Imagine the décor if you will: polished concrete floors, black walls, candles and silk lanterns. I ordered a champagne cocktail followed by a spicy beef and chicken Szechuan hotpot. I am learning that Chinese food doesn’t have to be bland steamed vegetables mixed with monosodium glutamate.
