Fancy some exotic vibes but also in a trendy way? Potato Head in Hong Kong is the one you must visit. Indonesian food, beach cocktails, fashion interior, and cool music... can't ask for more after a long day in town. They even have a fabulous vinyl room behind the bar! (Live DJing sometimes)

It's a very cool gin bar in a hidden basement behind a door of old ping pong practice room. The vibe is great and you could enjoy some Spanish tapas too along with those Gin cocktails.

It's a supermarket, it's a meat shop, and it's also a great cafe with everything you could think of and fancy in a day. Sometimes I only order a french toast with extra bacon (yes, sweet and salty... they're just too delicious to be mixed).

Sometimes you have to call a rain check to everywhere as the weather is really bad or you feel unwell to go out. Call the delivery from PhD and you will love their fried chicken and pizza!

Whether you want to have an energetic stroll in the early morning or a quiet one at night, Winston coffee is the best neighbour to be at the corner with its lovely desserts and drinks. My favourites - iced brew and flat white.

Fancy some authentic Japanese BBQ with beer... maybe even fancier... some Japanese cocktails? Yardbird serves great food and drinks and even music is cool! But, don't come too late as it's always a full house!

Parks & Nature
The University of Hong Kong
Sun Yat Sen Memorial Park
16 Eastern St NMy favourite time to go there is 4-6pm. I always play by ear when I see the weather's sunny and bright I'll come home to change and take the beach mat. Step out my flat at 4pm I'll be at the beach by 5pm, and the sunset is waiting for you ahead (or even not yet in summer time). Have a cool drink and lie on the beach. Maybe a dinner along the beach side after the chill?

The main supermarket I go mostly as it's clean and full of good yogurts. Sometimes you'll find discount items like meats and ciders.
