Hong Kong Travelogue: Day 1 at Jordan and TST!

My mum and I are in Hong Kong! We were supposed to take the 1am red eye flight last night but it got cancelled due to bad weather conditions. We got rescheduled to fly this morning at 8am instead. So we kinda lost out on half a day! 



We arrived in HK only at 1.30pm after a very turbulent flight. I was seriously praying throughout the entire journey because it was soooo bumpy. I was honestly very, very afraid. Gave thanks when I landed!

We took the airport express to Kowloon as usual and took a cab to our family's favorite hotel, Novotel at Nathan. We arrived just in time for check in! Yaaay. Felt so good to be able to just rest and freshen up after a bad flight. 


We walked over to Parkes street and had an awesome lunch at the Mak's noodle! Soooo glad I discovered this place last year. Was so excited to let my mum try the yummy soup noodles. We ordered beef brisket + tendon + wanton noodles. They were soooo gooooood. Definitely did not disappoint. 




That was not all! We hopped over to Australian dairy company to have their awesome milk pudding, both original and almond flavored. Also their milk tea which was so so only. Their puddings were amazing though! We're planning to go back to have their famous scrambled eggs + ham macoroni for brekkie tomorrow. 



Our next stop was Tsim sha tsui for some shopping! We basically walked around Granville and Cameron road until it was dinner time. I found the egg tart store to let my mummy try their yummy milk tart! It was good but I remembered it being better in winter! 


We bought stuff from Sasa (found my fairy drops mascara yay!) Bossini, Etude house, Innisfree, Bonjour, some clothing stores, fixed my mum's watch. Oh and we bought some nice and cheap umbrellas! Lol. Some highlight of the day =p 

We ended our night with dinner at our favorite Macau restaurant, which unfortunately isn't as good anymore. We had our curry beef brisket and roasted pigeon yum!
