Bakerzin @ Jurong Point - 19Dec2016

Bakerzin at Jurong Point had closed. I was fortunate to have a meal at this restaurant last year in December. I ordered tomato risotto cakes. The risotto cakes were actually made of type of rice. The food did not taste good. The side vegetables were okay.

kimchi chicken hotpot


Seoul Garden hot pot was a good choice. We ordered chicken hot pot and bibimbap, and a cinnamon drink at 4.90SGD. This drink was refreshing with the taste of cinnamon. The sides (cucumber, cabbage, raddish kimchi) were freeflow.

Hong Kong Travel - 29Nov2016


Ocean park cable car


Today we headed to HK Ocean Park. We took the MTR to Admiralty Station and bought the tickets at the tourist service counter.

We walked towards the bus station and took bus 629 which was the direct bus to HK ocean park. The bus ride was slightly over half an hour.

There was not much crowd in the morning. The
weather was cooling. We headed to queue at the cable station to get over to the other side of the theme park.

The view outside the cable car overlooking the mountains was spectacular.


Ocean Park


After spending half a day at HK ocean park, we took the 629 bus back to the bus station. We decided to walk towards the HK observation wheel. It was a 10 min ride on a ferries wheel overlooking the harbour.

Ferry


We were lucky to have a free ferry ride across to Tsim Sha Tsui harbour. I was excited to see a junk boat with the name 张保仔。It reminded of the HK drama serial with the same name.

HK Observation Centre


We were hungry and ate at a express tea-house for lunch. The tea-house was operated like a fast-food chain. The food was ok.

Changi T3 Ramen


Our flight was in the evening 6.30pm, we went early to terminal 3 @ changi airport to have a light dinner and to collect the wifi router.

Rosedale Hotel


We arrived in Hong Kong around 11 pm. We decided to take the airport express train to tsing yi station and changed to MTR to exit from Olympic station.

It was dark in the streets. We almost lost our way and we managed to find our hotel after a couple of walks among some streets. The hotel was near a petrol station and along some busy streets. Rosedale hotel was just next to Dorsett hotel.
