For Asian antique lovers, collectors and usis, Hollywood Road is the place to spend your afternoon.
Wood carvings, marble statues, ivory, silver, gold, mammoth ivory, animals made of hipo teeth can be found here. Depending on how much you are willing to spend or how much you can afford, there’s a gallery or a store that would suit and match your pocket moods and financial capabilities.
164 years old Man Mo Temple or Man Mo Miu in Chinese, is right here too.
It was only 10:30 am when Edmund and I walked to Hollywood Road from our hotel, which is only two blocks away.
Most of the shops are still closed so we walked downhill to look for a Chinese restaurant, both for breakfast and lunch.
The side street has a variety of stores selling from clothes, dried orange peel, different kinds of chilli, to one-man metal fabricator.
We saw a nice looking restaurant in a brand=new building.
How we wished that this restaurant has moving dimsum carts, but no, you have to check your orders here.
Except for this cart… but we couldn’t tell what she’s pushing
Edmund and I split this tasty chicken and mushroom congee.
Everything that we ordered tasted very good.
Senior citizens dine here, servers are also matured
There’s a giant lapu-lapu in an aquarium at the entrance. Wala sigurong nag-o-order nyan kaya lumaki na ng lumaki.
We got stucked in that place for 15 minutes because it started to pour.
We couldn’t afford to wait and wait because we’re leaving today for Manila. We braved the rain by walking one block to a Watson’s store. We bought two umbrellas for HK$25 each.
My favorite sandals needed some cleaning from the rain and soil.
