Typical Uniqlo with typical prices. Unfortunately no good sales going on at the time. The thing…read morewith Uniqlo is eventually everything goes on sale. So there's no point paying full price for anything. I was about to buy a pair of sweat pants for hk$59 but turned out to be women's sizing. Overall great place for foreigners that forgot to pack something.

I have been going to the Prada outlet in Ap Lei Chau from time to time over the years. If you…read moreyourself have done the same, make the following note on this 2017 new Prada outlet in Florentia Village in the New Territories...IT IS GIANT COMPARED TO AP LEI CHAU! I was actually at the Prada outlet in Ap Lei Chau, when I saw the sign at the check out counter indicating that there was a new store that had opened in Kwai Hing in 2017. The staff at Ap Lei Chau also indicated that it was much larger compared to their store. So my husband and I took the MTR out to Kwai Hing and then walked the 10 minutes or so to the Prada outlet store, located inside the Florentia Village outlet center (also new in 2017). It is not hard to find, although you will feel like Kwai Hing is in the middle of nowhere a bit. The Prada store has a lot of inventory. Really more clothes and shoes (both men's and women's) than really leather goods and handbags, although there is a big selection of those items too. The selection of women's clothes is extensive. With that being said, the discount level can vary based on what you are looking at. Most items are discounted on the low end at 20% and at 80% on the high end. The bigger discount items are located in the spots with the sign "special price." In those sections, the discount can be anywhere between 50-80% and maybe limited in sizes or "last one." But be sure to check prices on items not in those designated spots as well, because it is almost like a Crazy 8 ball, you really don't know the discount until you flip shoes over and pull tags behind collars. My husband walked out with a pair of pants, normally $3000HKD for $1500 and I bagged a pair of shoes normally $4300HKD for $750 (last pair, my size...score!) There is a lot of staff there to help with sizes and pull stuff from the high shelves. There is also a selection of items by Miu Miu as well. There is also a significant men's section, which my husband was happy to see. So a great Prada outlet and worthy of a visit if you are a devout follower like me to the brand.

I'm sad I only discovered Kwai Chung Plaza in recent years. It's a hub for cheap buys and…read moreaffordable food. The third floor of the complex is basically an indoor night market (but opened during the day time). There are so many food stalls, with more variety than I could imagine. They have Taiwanese sausages, Japanese takoyaki, local HK delicacies, and more. Aside from food stalls, they also have actual sit-down restaurants, too. I was not that hungry when I came, so I couldn't indulge in as many foods as I wanted to. If I had more stomach space, I would have definitely fit in some of the many bevs on offer and maybe even ice cream. But they don't only have food. They also sell random products that you could typically find in residential HK malls like clothes, accessories, cute merch, etc. I found some really adorable Sanrio red envelopes here! This place is kind of like a maze and it's easy to get lost in. My sister and I separated here and we ended up going home without the other because that was easier than trying to find each other again. The third floor has some benches circling the escalators area, but they're usually all taken. I was really tired from walking, and I would've stayed longer if I was able to sit and rest for a small break. The one star off is for the lack of sitting areas, confusing layout, and honestly could use a facelift. I would come back again to do a proper food crawl, but I'll probably bring my portable chair.

This is the Japanese version of Gap. Located at Maritime Square next to the waters and the…read morepromenade, you can easily equip yourself with a full set of workout clothes and go out and start jogging... There is a Sketchers store one level down too. Love how there's a Uniqlo by my apartment! And hate there's one by my apartment too! I probably spent more than HKD $2000 (USD $300) just in this store alone after paying 5+ visits in 2 months during my walk back home from the subway station... I figure I should write a review for them given that I have spent so much time there. Never really shopped at Uniqlo before until a friend of mine told me the underwear there is very comfy, so I walked in there looking for panties and ended up buying a jacket, a vest, a pair of pants, a few shirts, a few tops, socks, pajamas, eventually the whole store. The prices are generally reasonable and the quality of clothes are well made even though they're mostly made in China. (I know some people are very against it, but I personally judge the quality more than the country of manufacture. I've seen ugly stuff made in Italy before, although rare.. haha) I love the creative yet classy designs and cutting styles at Uniqlo. Beware though, it's Japanese size, so if you wear an American small, you're probably a Japanese medium. The staff in this particular store are very friendly. They had always been friendly and welcoming when I walked in. They acknowledged me when I was standing in line at the register even when they were busy with other customers. I would definitely come back for more clothes!
