eug and i enjoyed a lovely weekend together. friday we didn't do much...i went out for drinks with some ppl at work and waited for eug...we then went and had some yummy dumplings, came home, and feel asleep watching old ab fab episodes.
saturday we had dinner with a few friends at yellow door, one of many private kitchens in HK. we're on a mission to test them all out. it was szichuan, but could've been spicier for sure. overall, it was good but not sure if it was worth the price. it wasn't terribly expensive but we've been to some that are better that cost less. we then went to some bar called lotus that was way too loud. though, the great thing about hong kong is that you can bring your drinks outside and hang out there, which makes having conversation possible, even enjoyable. then i was able to convince eug, with sarah's help, to go dancing! it ended up being just me, sarah, eug and his friend han (sp?) - everyone else who i didn't really know went elsewhere. i took them to the only place i knew was easy to get into that played hip hop. ran into some ppl from work and drank and danced. the place itself was not so hot, but i always have fun when i'm shaking my bootay...
sunday, we slept in and then met up with our friend phoebe and her fiancee for brunch and then headed out to yung shue wan island. it was so nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of hk. it's quite bohemian there and everyone is nice - someone actually told us to enjoy our day...we found a cheesecake place and read for about two hours then had some seafood for dinner. anytime i see deep-fried squid, with chili and salt i have a great urge to order it. and that i did. i'm on a forever search for something as good as a dong's (in houston), which is no more. but, alas, i am always disappointed.
here are some pics...
i took this picture from the pier in HK because the tarp looks like a pair pajamas belonging to a giant 5 year-old.
