shopping in the city. Just grocery shoppin...
Sunday, 19 August 2007
Went out with my S'porean friends to do our grocery shopping at Queen Victoria Market. It's this huge dry and wet market located in the city. I was there mainly for the clothes while a few others were there seriously for groceries. They even dragged their ah ma black trolley bags with them. U won't catch me dragging one of those. HAh.Before that, we went to Sharkfin House Restaurant for some authentic Dim Sum lunch. There were waitress pushing carts carrying Dim Sum and you gotta order from there rather than order from a menu. So exciting. First time that I've eaten in this kind of traditional HK Dim Sum restaurants. The food was great! I was introduced to Krispy Kreme, which is famous for donuts. We bought a dozen and everyone took 2 each. OMG, it was SUPER SWEET!! The original donut which I ate, was coated with frosted sugar. Although extremely sweet, the dough texture was soft and tasty. But I suspect it was that extremely sweet donut which had caused me to get motion sickness in the tram on the way back home afterthat. The overwhelming sugar content must have created a feeling of fullness so great that my mind, which was susceptible to motion sickness, fell prey to it. U know the situation where u've overeaten and u hop on a bus? A few of my friends showed a lil concern for me, which made me feel good. It's always nice to have friends showing their concern. Implies that I matter to them and not just a person who's hanging out with them.
