Life Cafe Hong Kong: vegan and gluten-free

Dan and I went to Life Cafe in SoHo, right in the middle of the mid-levels escalator.

Dan’s visit & interview (video!)

Dan’s a friend from high school and a bassist for Cirque du Soleil. He dropped by Hong Kong for a 1-day visit between Taiwan and Greece. Here’s our interview about him being internationally nomadic for 3 years.

Hong Kong versus Singapore: Chip’s 2 cents

In preparation for my (temporary? permanent?) relocation to Singapore, I asked Chip a few questions about the place. As we know, she lived there from age 6–19. Here’s her full interview on Singapore and how it differs from Hong Kong.

Holy crap, this kid is going bananas.

It’s almost 11pm and the kid next door has been throwing a tantrum for about 3 hours now.

Volcano Day: Tai Mo Shan

Tai Mo Shan is no fancy, Hawaii-style volcano. Actually, Chip’s mom has lived nearly her whole life at Tai Mo Shan and never knew it was volcanic in the least.

Sunday: pre-volcano (video!)

Like I’ve said before, we take reader requests seriously at ohiasia. So when one of you suggested:

Alleys along Hollywood Road

Took these on my way home from Classified.

Classified on Hollywood Rd.

Hollywood Road is the “Ho” of SoHo here in Hong Kong, lined with Western-style restaurants like F.A.B., Press Room and Classified.

Elevator & Polka dots

While I’m sorting out all my videos (plural), pics and whatnot from the past few days, you can see the pic I took waiting for the ever-slow elevator at work tonight.

Shugetsu Lunch

Went to this Japanese place for lunch Friday

Pics from Rainy Saturday

Met Jessica today for her hair appointment and took some pics on the way to and from.

Leon’s going away (continued)

They ordered some cakes for Leon’s going-away. Here’s some coworkers you may not have seen:

Dim Sum: Lunch with Jerks

We went to this place for some dim sum lunch.

Little Rant

I don’t mind if friends don’t read my blog; really I don’t.

I’ve created a monster

As usual, Rico and I were making thinly-veiled threats at each other and in a moment of fury I decided to “crush his head”.

Little Visitor (video!)

Remember the neighbor kid at the bottom of Sunday’s post? Well I just caught him on tape! A little camera shy. We’ll try for more of a show next time.

Coca Cola with sugar

I’m not a huge soda drinker (especially non-diet), but I don’t think I’m imagining how good this sugar-sweetened Coke tasted compared to the American HFCS version.
