I am sitting here in front of one of the most famous coffee shops in Hong Kong. In front of me was a honey-drizzled strawberry tart. Two things I enjoy immensely combined. Ready to be devoured. But no. I can’t eat it just yet.
Do you know why? Because Jik said:
“Jangan kau makan apapun sebelum aku foto!*”
*”Don’t eat anything before I take picture!”
Why did I choose her as my best friend?
We have decided to give this place a 5-star. Yes. I have eaten the tart above. OMG. So Good.
The service is good. The cafe plays music. It also has many types of seating (we are sitting by the window facing the street) and amiable staff.
We are sold.
Jik just yelled out loud:
“AAAA…. sipping hot spicy apple cider”
Another thing she said just now:
“Ahhh ayam gue tinggal satu!!!!”
“Ahhh, I only have one chicken left!!!!“
hahahhaah congok (greedy)!
It didn’t miss out on me that today is Monday, and instead of sitting in my cubicle on the left corner of the 33rd floor on Beach road, I am here.
Writing, travelling, coffee-ing, and with Jik.
Who can’t stop talking about her spicy hot apple cider tea? It’s perfect. I almost admit it to her.
Oh btw, we just came from the bookshop opposite the road. Called Cosmos. It looked like a neighbourhood bookstore but don’t be fooled, my friends. Is it a huge two stories book store, and the best part? They still have old English books. The ones I saw years ago in Singapore borders and recently woke up with the suspicion to buy them when I searched for them. I couldn’t find them anymore in Kinokuniya these days.
You might think I bought one with all these long paragraphs, no? No, I didn’t. I bought a published homegrown blogger, Jason Y.NG’s book, Hong Kong State of Mind.
I should get another book of his while we are still in the neighbourhood.
