Foods, Living in HK
Author:  Source: https://www.forsomethingmore.com/authentic-dim-sum-in-hong-kong/ A Relic of the Past Lin Heung Tea House is by no means a new dim sum establishment in Hong Kong, but it is certainly a classic, and arguably, it’s the most authentic dim sum in Hong Kong. In fact, in 1926 Lin Heung opened two branches in Hong Kong. In 1980, Lin Heung opened its branch in Central, and its branch in Sheung Wan (which is the location we review below) opened in 2009. Suffice it to say, Lin Heung is a relic of Hong Kong’s past, and it’s a one of a kind experience. If you wanna read more, check this out.

Expats Guide / Tips (Budgeted & Stylish) Living in Kowloon, Hong Kong

Accommodations
Join our whatsapp broadcast list now to get the first hand info! (Hong Kong Flats) >>>> https://chat.whatsapp.com/Ia6s7RvpZ7T3kj9ve3sR19 Compared to Hong Kong Island, Kowloon is hardcore Hong Kong living. Its 47 square kilometres are crowded, Mongkok in particular offers a huge range of cultural, culinary and social activities, and New Kowloon (Olympic / Tai Kok Tsui) are increasingly popular among expats looking for cheaper housing that still reaches a decent standard. Kowloon is officially made up of the areas Prince Edward, Mongkok, Tai Kok Tsui and Tsim Sha Tsui, and in fact much of it is distinctly low-rise by Hong Kong standards. This is due to the fact that much of it was on the landing path for the old Kai Tak airport until 1998. The skyscrapers are going up fast though, and…

Attractions in Mongkok, Kowloon

Places
Langham Place Address: 8 Argyle Street, Mong Kok, Hong Kong (Google Map: https://goo.gl/maps/2RUJk2MXKWN2) Langham Place is a commercial skyscraper complex and shopping mall completed in 2004 the Mong Kok area of Kowloon Due to the high price of land and the higher yield on retail property in Hong Kong, the Langham Place Mall departs from the common Western model of the flat shopping mall. It is the second "vertical mall" in Hong Kong. The exterior of the mall is characterised by an iconic multi-faceted façade of yellow fissured Brazilian granite stretching from street level to the roof. Another distinctive feature is the 9-storey glass atrium which lets in natural lighting and allows passersby to look through the middle of the building. The Mall’s 56,000 m2 (600,000 sq ft) of retail space…
