Beauty and the Chicken Foot

Following the market we went to runch at the Jockey Club.

Amid fried rice rolls...



Shanghai noodles...



Chilli-peppered soft-shell crabs...



And some yummy shrimps...



Anne stuck a chicken-foot in her mouth.




Gross.




-----------------

After lunch we went up to Victoria Peak, which has a mall and lookout terrace that looks out on both sides of Hong Kong Island.

Mr. Goat meets Mr. Frog in the Joyous Singing After-Land of Decapitated Food-Animals

Many of you may remember "Mr. Frog Has A Bad Day".

Anne sure did. And as such, she requested to be taken on a tour of Fa Yuen Marketplace, the place where Mercy and Jo (the maids) do their daily grocery shopping.

We woke up bright and early (and slightly hungover) and rode down to the market with Mercy.




Arriving at the market, we noticed many other tourists milling about simply to take in the sights rather than to actually purchase fruits, frogs, or vegetables. (Perhaps they too heard about Mr. Frog's not-so-great day.)



Why hello, Delectable Breakfast Noodles!



Hey there Green Healthy Veggie Friends!





Why hello Brightly Lit Aquarium!



G'day Bag's O' Fishes!




Why hello Fist-Sized Goldfish Fatties!




Ciao, Banana-Bundles and friends!




Greetings, Young Bushel of Gingers!



How do you do, Formerly Flu-infested Chickens!




Ummm....Mr. Pig.......?

What happened to your.....foot?




Nice to see you again Mr and Mrs.......

Frogs.....?





Run Mr. Goat!!! RUN!!!!!!!!!!!

...............

Ohhh....

Knutsford Terrace and the Felix

After Shenzhen we headed out to Tsim Sha Tsui where there's this new-ish trendy little area called Knutsford Terrace that's kind of like a mini Lan Kwai Fong.



We stopped first at this Irish Pub where we got a sweet giant beer dispenser tap thing and drank gallons of beer in lieu of having dinner...




The two little appetizer things were just barely enough to keep us from getting supremely shit-canned.



Filled with beer = Filled with happy.



We then headed over to The Felix at top of the Peninsula which boasts the greatest view of any bar in Hong Kong.







After a round of overpriced martinis, we headed back to Knutsford to a silly bar called:



Met up with Eugene (who just moved back to HK from Boston) and his new roommate and BFF Calvin.

(Euge, Clarence, and I went to Deerfield together and KristyKwan is family friends with Calvin and e-introduced him via facebook to Clarence (who she has never even met) who then introduced him to Eugene (who she also has never met) but they hit it off and now Calvin and Eugene are roommates.)



Anne made a questionable judgement call and ordered a round of Long Islands.



Long Islands resulted in dancing...



...which resulted in Felix's head in the fridge at 2am finding nothing but juices and frog heads.
