HONG KONG GUIDE (THREAD 34)

Bratty pede magrequest sa kfc na instead of mushroom rice or chicken ala king, plain rice lang. Yun din yon eh nilalagyan lang nila ng sauce pag may umoorder.

Sa yoshinoya, ajisen, kfc, cafe de coral, maxims, fairwood merong rice. And kapag kailangan nyo ng spoon hingi lang kayo ng "take away spoon" ... (Take away=take out) kasi yung take away spoon nila kutsara talaga hindi katulad nung malaking pang soup.

By the way mooncake season na naman...  Mid Autumn Festival sa september 19

^ang sarap nyan bumabaha ng mooncake hehe! naalala ko nong unang punta ko ng HK, tawa kami ng tawa nong kakain kami sa mcdo nong tinanong ako ng counter kung stay here (dine-in) or take away (to go) first-time ko kasing narinig yong stay here

[yapeegurl]

Heatherette, naka try din kami sa Spaghetti House pero last year pa. Sa TST area ata kami naka try nun. Sa Bubba Gump, Jambalaya ang order ko. Nasarapan naman ako. Pero yung variant ng Tabasco nila hindi spicy Super gutom na kasi kami nun and iyon agad nakita namin na resto from The Peak. Hindi pa ako nakaka try sa Din Tai Fung kahit dito sa SG. Nacucurious na talaga ako hahaha And regarding the card ng hotel, agree ako dito. Big help ito for us.

rocky, meron nga akong map nun. Nag print talaga ako pero sawi. Hindi talaga nila ako maintindihan. Ako din naman hindi sila maintindihan i.e. taxi drivers. Next time I'll try sa Crystal Jade

mindee, nag taxi din kami from the Peak going to LKF last time. Mabuti iyong taxi na iyon naintindihan kami. There were 2 instances lang na hindi ako nagets. Malas ko kasi ito yung time na hila hila ko pa luggage ko looking for the hotel. Congratulations for a fun trip to HK!

[workinmom]

^ thank you! hopefully someone would know the link to the rates of cts. I can't find it e. also kinda OT but how much would the one-way terminal fees be per person, P1620 nga ba?

[mindee]

^1,620 ang travel tax. 550 yung terminal fee.

[workinmom]

^oh gosh. mas mura pa plane fare kaysa sa travel tax and terminal fee.

[pchym]

Hi sisses!  Where can i get shenzhen visa and how much is it?  Also, san ako pwede mag alight from airport express going to tst? Planning to check in at GC kasi. Tia!;-)

[missing_out]

^ 550.00 lang pala ang terminal fee kala ko 750.00..next week na kami punta sa HK..

[rocky]

^^walang station sa TST ang airport express, malayo na pag kowloon. mas ok bus derecho na sa harap mismo ng GC

[pchym]

What bus ang sakyan ko and how many hours ang byahe.  San po ang terminal?  Tnx, sis rocky!

[workinmom]

HKD1 is equivalent to P7 right? and i'm not sure if i've already asked this but are kids free pa sa MTR?

[prettybarbie]

1 HKD- 5.3 or 5.4 Pesos .... kids 95 cm and below, free, may sukatan don

[yapeegurl]

pchym, nung nag airport express ako from airport to TST, eto ang route ko (If I remember correctly):

Airport--Hongkong Station--Central--TST

Medyo madali lang for me that time kasi very light lang ang luggage ko and hindi naman ako nagmamadali to get to the hotel.
