Hong Kong Trip 2019 : Play, Eat & Shop (Part 2)
If you’ve read Part 1 of my Hong Kong (香港) trip, this is the Part 2 of Hong Kong Trip 2019.

Hong Kong Trip in 2014 : Shop, Eat & See (Shopping, Feasting & Sightseeing)
We just got back from our 香港 Hong Kong trip! While its good to be home, a part of me started missing HK for its food, shopping & sightseeing.
