Lan Kwai Fong (兰桂坊)
October 15th, 2008 | by jys |After we got down from the peak, we decided to go to Lan Kwai Fong (兰桂坊) to have a look. Many ppl told me it’s very near the peak, but seriously, I don’t think it is really that near lar (maybe because I’m really very exhausted cos started to walk from morning till night and till now 11pm also not yet had my dinner)! It took us about 20 minutes (walk) to reached Lan Kwai Fong (兰桂坊) from the peak, and here you go, the famous Lan Kwai Fong (兰桂坊).
Lan Kwai Fong (兰桂坊)
See? Lot's of people!!
How come everyone standing outside?
It’s basically a street full of pubs!! If you looked inside those pubs, you will see that those people standing outside is actually more than ppl sitting inside the pubs. According to our friend (who worked in HK), he said those ppl who can afford will go drink inside the pub, those who cannot afford will just go 7-11 (there’s one along the street) and get themselves a bottle of beer. Then they will stand in front of those pubs as if they were inside the pub!! Not a bad idea hor.. wuahahahaha, no wonder the people on the street more than those in the pubs!!
lot's of sign boards
After taking a few pictures (we just plan to go there have a look, hehe), we decided to go back to our hotel, very tired and hungry!! When we reached our hotel it’s almost 12am!! What to eat at 12am? We got not much choice but to go tabao McDonald..FL tried the quarter pounder (足三两) which only sells after 9pm!! hehe..
Today is only the second day of our HK trip and I already can’t feel my leg. hehe…

I like that idea of buying a drink from the 7-11 and then drinking it in front of the pub like….useful when you’re on a shoe-string drinking budget….lol…!!!
Jys:
