We had macaroni~
Will be travelling to Lantau Island today.
first stop will be the Citygates Outlets beside Tung Chung MTR.
Didn't get to buy anything as the stuff were mostly out of our budget, but most prices are warehouse prices, worth a visit if you are into branded stuff.
Took Bus 23 from the bus interchange nearby to go to the Ngong Ping Village.
Make our way to the Po Lin Monastery for our lunch. You have to buy a ticket first before you can go in. HKD60/person for the normal meal. As there were only 2 of us, we only got 5 dishes. The more people in a table, the more dishes they will provide.
The mushrooms were really nice. =)After such a full meal, it's time for some exercise. We climbed up the long stairs leading to the Giant Buddha.
The scenery was the reward.
We climbed down again and went to wait for bus 21 to go to Tai O Fishing Village.
Hopped on to the first boat ride we saw for HKD20.
The weather was already cold and with the strong winds blowing, it was really getting into our bones. I was practically shivering as the boat moves. LOL
We had a small ride into the village first before heading out to the sea. There's a small chance of catching a glimpse of pink dolphins, but we were out of luck. Anyway, it was still an exciting boat ride as the waves were strong! =)
Our main purpose of coming to Tai O Village was actually to eat the famous Lan Niao Xia (peeing prawns).It was freshly caught and cooked on the spot for you. One plate cost around HKD80. If you simply buy the prawns only, it is only HKD20! A superb price isn't it?
First time eating such prawns, and yes, it is very delicious as described by many, but we weren't that good at eating it. The price to pay for it was more than the money, our fingers were suffering. LOL
Ended our short trip at Lantau Island and travelled back to Mongkok for more shopping and eating~
Our late dinner at Hai Jing Zhou Dian:
They are very famous for their porridge, do try it if you visit them!
