hongkong: day 4 of 6, STANLEY

The mini bus service from Causeway Bay to Stanley Market was hard to find – it was well hidden in a narrow back alley. I secretly suspect the drivers of these mini buses received trainings from Michael Schumacher himself in cornering the many bends at such high speed! Stanley Market was a kind of it’s own, I suppose. It sells souvenirs which the tourist would be interested in buying. The beach beside it make it look like it’s a pasar malam near a resort.

There's an eatery through this small alley

Dilapilated house

Lunch at one of the crowded restaurant was just superb. However, the drink was other wise. Having an adventurous spirit, I decided to give Lemon coffee a try. The mixture of taste from the lemon and the coffee was something indescribable. I left more than half a cup left.

The plain-looking-but-delicious roast pork rice

Lemon coffee which doesn't please my palate at all!

The peak tram to get up to Victoria Peak was flooded with people, especially so on a holy day like Christmas. So instead of seeing the nightly displays of lights from the Peak, we headed for the Harbour where there were music to compliment the lightshow.
