❀ Smallest 7-Eleven

We took this photo of the supposedly smallest 7-Eleven at the Disneyland Resort Station in Hong Kong. I don't know if this is the smallest 7-Eleven in the world, but it sure is small.

❀ Takomaru

Yummy japanese octopus balls at HK$37 (May 2009) from Takomaru at City Super, Harbour City, Hong Kong. This is way too many for me. I ate only 3 balls and lovey helped me finish the rest.

Was able to try Singapore's Takopachi in Bugis in 2005 but don't really remember how that tasted like, except that lovey and I both loved it and went back there to eat it again the next day.

❀ San-X Capsule Toys

My Mamegoma, Rilakkuma and Monokuro Boo San-X gashapon souvenirs. Got these 3 items from this gashapon machine at HK$10 (May 2009) apiece in Langham Place Mall, Mongkok, Hong Kong.

❀ Ten Thousand Buddhas (3)

This is the much bigger eye-catching buddha I was referring to in my previous post about a buddha sitting on a bright blue lion. (see my Ten Thousand Buddhas (2) post) It's bigger than life-size and has many many arms.

❀ ThreeSixty

Our lunch at ThreeSixty food store in Elements, Hong Kong. I had the salmon sashimi at HK$35.80 (May 2009) and lovey had this chili dog at HK$21.20 (May 2009). The best sashimi ever. I loved it and ate slow so I can savor the flavor. The only disadvantage is I can't enjoy eating salmon sashimi anywhere else anymore, I keep comparing it to this one. The chili dog doesn't look appetizing but lovey says it's yummy too.

❀ Ocean Park Souvenirs (2)

Are they considered gashapon? Anyway, these are my ball souvenirs from Ocean Park Hong Kong. It's a panda inside a ball and a puffer fish inside a ball. They're HK$15 (June 2008) apiece. The last photo shows the giant gashapon machine which dispensed my puffer fish ball. You kinda get an idea of it's size by judging the size of the balls inside both machines.

❀ Goldfish Street

There's a portion of Tung Choi St. in Mongkok, Hong Kong that is referred to as Goldfish St. by Hongkongers. It's a nice relaxing short walk for pet lovers. The pet shops here also sell puppies, rabbits, turtles, crabs, etc.

❀ Eggettes

On our way to Goldfish Street we came across this eggette food stall in Mongkok, Hong Kong. Having read several blogs talking highly of this supposedly famous dessert, I just had to try one. Didn't like it. Lovey didn't wanna try it so I had to finish the whole thing all by myself. It's S$7 (May 2009) for one roll (looks like bubble wrap).

❀ Disney Hollywood Hotel Keychain

Got this Disney's Hollywood Hotel logo keychain souvenir at Celebrity Gifts for HK$60 (May 2009) in Hong Kong Disneyland.

❀ Disneyland Resort Shuttle

The resort shuttle at Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel brings guests to and fro the park for free. The third photo shows the video monitor inside the shuttle.

At the end of the day, we rode the shuttle to see Disney's Hollywood Hotel and I had the unlucky experience of sitting on a wet seat. Had to transfer to another seat at the back of the bus hoping it was just spilt water I sat on. But with kids everywhere I wonder :(

Kawaii drink inside a vending machine in Mongkok, Hong Kong. Now that I think about it, I kinda regret not having tasted it.

❀ Spaghetti House

Our meal at Spaghetti House in JP Plaza, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. The Chicken Wings in Black Pepper & Honey Sauce is HK$39 (June 2008). The spaghetti with ice lemon tea is HK$62 (June 2008).

The food is yummy but, I didn't really enjoy eating here. The air-conditioning is way too cold. Since I'm a slow eater, my spaghetti got cold while I was eating eat.

Will I eat here again next time? Maybe not. Although the food is good, I prefer to eat it warm.

❀ Giordano Jeans

Got this pair of jeans on a "two for HK$190" sale at the Giordano outlet in Citygate Outlets in Tung Chung. This jeans is originally priced at HK$150 (May 2009). For only HK$190, lovey and I got a pair of jeans each. That's a good buy!

❀ Ten Thousand Buddhas (2)

This is one of the prominent life-size buddha at Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery in Sha Tin Hong Kong. Although it stands right next to a much bigger eye-catching buddha (see my Ten Thousand Buddhas (3) post), the bright blue lion(?) kinda stands out.
