Contrary to the name claim, there is nothing Hong Kong about this mall. It should have been named Saigon City Mall which would have been more appropriate. Aside from the huge anchor Asian grocery store in the middle, the mall is flanked by an assortment of Vietnamese-oriented beauty/cosmetics, nail, phone, apparel, gifts, pho and Asian-centric mom-n-pop stores with a sleepy food court on one end. There are quite a few signs pointing to Massage upstairs. The other prominent anchor tenant is Shabu Zone. Generally, around 50% of the stores were closed. Parking lot is Lone Star state size. Nothing else exciting to write about. Certainly, a coulda, shoulda, woulda experience. Sure you'll like this mall if you want to experience Vietnamese culture.

I also stock up on chopsticks and bowls. I took home some frozen dumplings for my daughter. The Boba shops are also delicious on a hot summer day. I also bought a few things at the beauty stores including some jelly collagen that's been really tasty. It's just a neat experience every time I go and I'm able to get Asian products at a decent price.

Some of the best plazas are (sigh) gone, but this one remains, and is the heart of "Vietnamesetown"…read moreas my friend called it, the other day, correcting me when I called it Chinatown. Indeed, Teaholic has some wonderful Vietnamese drinks and a lot of delicious Boba, such as the Strawberry Black Tea which is one of the best of its kind anywhere. And the Strawberry Aloe reminds me of the Aloe Refresher from Fruitealicious in Dallas. Amazing. Bambu, next door, is the very best location of the Viet dessert and drink chain, making some of the best smoothies you'll ever have - especially the Honeydew, the Taro Coconut, the Mocha, and the Berry. But there's a lot more than just Viet stuff here, with amazing Korean Chicken (Lim's) as well as soups and stews and rice stone pot bowls aplenty. Zero Degrees (Cali chain) has a wonderful and popular location here, with their Strawberry Mojito and Strawberry Lime drinks off the charts, and their Cucumber Lime, Viet Coffee, Strawberry Horchata, and more, also stellar. Not a fan of Chili and Mango stuff, but their Mangonada is famous and popular too. And they do split cups (so does Teaholic). Long Coffee, Kravin, a location of the chain Mango Mango, and other spots in this plaza, are also well worth a visit. Parking and access can be really difficult, but then the same can be said about my gf. And now she's (sigh) gone.

Most entrances are blocked off for the mall, remaining stores, and even the for the college which can't be used. It was a nice exploration place, but was very sad seeing this mall pretty much abandoned, forgotten, and taking up space. Haven't updated their stores on the map as it says they're still standing and the mall still opened. Not too much of a mall or shopping center if that's what you're looking for.

This is one of the most beautiful shopping plazas in town as it's so massive with so much parking and so wide open and has so many great businesses in it - especially Lee's Sandwiches and Bambi which is named after me, and of course the wonderful Nguyen Ngo, which has great Croissant Banh Mi, and don't forget Lee's iced coffee which is probably the best in town. And then of course there's also the steam rice roll type dish perfected by Thien Thanh, which are some of the best Viet food I've ever had, and one of Houston's best meals.

Many well-known restaurants started here and still here, like Okome Don, Jasmine Asian Cuisine and San Dong Noodle House. Few years ago, they finished construction the extension and added some new tenants. This mall is becoming the young people's paradise. There are adding Soju Blues, Dim Sum King and Nomi Nori that will crowd this parking lot every single day. I normally park at Sterling Plaza parking lot and walk over. Here is a quick glance at the mall, at the moment: Suite A - Soju Blues (Opening soon) Suite B1 - Okome Don Suite B - Dim Sum King (Under Construction) Suite C - Qi Ao Salon 奇奥 Suite D - Jasmine Asian Cuisine Suite E - Happy Lemon Suite F - San Dong Noodle House 山東麵館 Suite G - Nomi Nori (Opening soon) Suite H - Street Churros Suite I - R&B Tea Suite J - Honeymee Suite L - Sunright Tea Studio There are a couple more spaces vacant at Suite M and S. I hope to see some takeout restaurants or newspaper stand.

Also, there are two stores right across the street from each other. Now, each building houses its own inventory, and what's across the street is totally different from the store across from it. Once inside, I will say the selection varies from one shop to the next. I can honestly say you will find what you are looking for or even more things you didn't know you liked. Now, my heart lies with all things gems, beads, and stones. But I soon kept wondering and discovered there were these cute scarves for a really great price that I adored. Well, I kept going on, and on and I kept buying to the store across the street, it was a nice day.
