Otakus and Tea

A couple weekends ago, Adam and I ventured into Mong Kok. It's a bigger, more bustlin' place compared to Tai Wai, but nothing compared to HK Island. But Mong Kok is closer to us, and we heard from a reliable source that we could get our geek on with anime things XP.

We probably spent about 2 hours going from store to store, and found ourselves famished. Unfortunately we're both really bad at just picking a restaurant and "going with it". Maybe it's our passive natures, I don't know. We would of just been fine going to get a cup of coffee, but it's VERY UNLIKELY here in HK if you're in a busy town to actually get a seat/table in a cafe setting. We did try a Starbucks and a Pacific Coffee, but there was no place we could sit just to give our aching feet a break! We were just about to head back into the train station to go home, when we saw a sign for a cafe. We figured why not, and headed in. Little did we know... we had found paradise! A very spacious, clean, romantic Japanese style cafe, that had two floors of tables. HUZZAH! At first we thought we'd just get some coffee or tea, but it ended up turning into a full meal.

First up, mashed potatoes with a seafood base.

Soo dainty!

Next up, some delish yakisoba.

After our meal, we were hesitant to leave. It was soo nice inside! We're always in crowded spaces, but for some reason, some restaurants just fee soo spacious. And for once, it wasn't annoying loud inside. Most places you just hear people yapping at the top of the lungs, and babies crying.... it really does get old. So, to indulge a little more, we ordered some tea and coffee.

Adam went safe and got the Blue Mountain coffee. All the UCC brand, very nice :D

Don't mind me- I'm just sweaty as hell and didn't think I'd be taking any photos today XD

I usually don't do fruit teas, but I was interested in the apple tea they had listed. It was soo nicely presented. The teapot had enough for two cups of tea, and it came with this honey/simple syrup that was just perfect. Ahhhh, couldn't of asked for more! Oh wait, but there was more! Even some apple slices for full-apple-power!

It's all about presentation!

We don't go to Mong Kok often, but I am DEFINITELY excited to come again. They had such a HUGE menu. both for food and drinks, and I want to try everything!

I can't find the streams for them! Anyone have any suggestions? D:  (And yeah The Voice season is over, but I only got to the last battle round, I haven't seen anything else >0<)

BB knead-o

BB loves this one blankets we picked up on a whim at Target. It's one of those soft microfiber blankets. Who knew she would take such a liking to it? Good thing we brought it with us along with all our junk via boat. She has a lot of lost time to make up for X3

A suspicious trail

Sunday was just a normal day. Instead of mulling in the apartment, we decided to get out and run some errands. Outside the breeze was blowing, giving us relief from the heat, and putting us in a good mood. We just walked out of our estate, and were making our way towards the train station. Although I was oblivious to anything, Adam seemed to notice something:

what the..?!

We're not very close to any fields or parks....The cement sidewalk that wraps around our estate and to the train station was made a few years ago, so what was this?  The tiniest of tiny paw prints! How adorable! Just so you can get an idea of size...

I am Sasquatch, bow down to my might tiny pawprint! XD

Again, this is pretty amazing that Adam was able to pick this out so quickly!  The only thing that I think could think of that could have this small of a print size is either a tiny TINY Pomeranian or maybe a *gasp* kittay?! But cat's don't usually go out on leashes with their owners on walks here. So maybe a feral/stray kitten? D: Adam and I have only seen 2 during our entire time here in HK. Here's one of them we saw recently:

Tuxedo Biddy!

So I guess we'll never find out for sure, but still, it was a fun little adventure in our minds XD Oh, and to keep your brain rolling:

bottom right AND top left

One imprint was really deep, and the other two (top right) were really light. For an animal with such tiny prints, the space between the single and the pair print is HUGE. Plus, these were the only prints we could find out within the vicinity. Weird!

E-Window shopping....again

I cant help myself! I'll always find time to look through all my fav shops online!

I love the lace hem! Soo adorable!

I want to be bright yellow! And all those pleats, soo cute!

...speaking of yellow.... I'm obsessesd!

...and more shoes! I love that loop and symmetry

I love that wide collar, so cute! Woud love to pair this with a high waisted skirt or trousers

BACK TO SHOES! I could wear these everyday! Actually... I -need- these!!

This seafoam blue is so soft and pretty. I think you could dress this shoe up or down!

I ended up kinda shoe-heavy, didn't I? I think its because I need comfortable shoes to wear for all the walking in HK, but I want them to be cute too! With Internet up and running in the apartment now maybe I can get some orders in the works. Anyone know any good shoe online retailers that carry size 11 and have international shipping? :D

Oh McDonalds...

"We meet again, McDonalds...."

No matter where I go in the world, I'm always bound to visit a McDonalds. Mind you, I used to be a Burger King gal (oh man, the fries!). Back in college, me and Adam's 1st apartment together was really close to a Mackers (oh no, my accent, apologies!), and I ended up loving it. That's about the time I converted from Pepsi to Coke too.

In our tiny town of Tai Wai, I've already found 3 McDonalds, LOL. So of course on cheat day (we're still trying on our diet!) we were too lazy to go out of town, and ended up at the golden arches. I noticed they had a new burger, the McSpicy Feast. A feast in a burger, you say? Bring it on!

You gotta read the whole thing

"Stacked full of surprises"? Actually, I WAS surprised, because I didn't notice that it had a chicken crisp AND a chicken patty! LOL, oh fatty days! Granted, I don't think I could eat this often, but the chicken was a little spicy and crunchy, and the patty was extra filling. Pair this up with some fries and a coke, and you're set! I wonder if I'll find any other crazy burger options here in HK.

Pillow Talk

Fuuuuu Fuuuu Fuuuu! So I'm obsessing about pillows. We need some decorative pillows in the bedroom and on the couch. Unfortunately here in HK, I haven't found too many options yet. I'm being picky this time around, trying to find the best for our happy new home. With some web surfing online, I found some amazing patterns for the bedroom :D

both from the Caitlin Wilson Collection

 Aren't these patterns amazing? Right now our bedroom is  lot of white and silver/grey, but I want to introduce blue. The floral patter is just too pretty to pass, I love peonies soo much! Too bad this company is based in the US, I don't know what it would be like to ship here to HK. D: Speaking of HK....

This is their "Cobalt Hong Kong" Pillow

I love this pattern tons! Wish we could have their entire collection, its just that amazing. For now though I'm going to try and keep my eyes opened here. We're having our curtains installed May 4th, so I definitely want to see what that splash of color looks like before committing to anything else. The living room color pallet is definitely something I never thought I would go with. Can't wait to see it all completed! :D
