Koi Kei Bakery is a famous Macau souvenir shop chain. It has stores outside Macau in Hong Kong and…read moreSingapore. This is a small location in Mong Kok on Sai Yeung Choi Street. The selection here is smaller than the ubiquitous locations in Macau which you find in just about every street near the Ruins of St. Paul's. Unlike in Macau, they don't offer Portuguese egg tarts here unfortunately. Store is too small I guess. However, they do have a nice selection of snack cakes and desserts. They come prepackaged so they are perfect as souvenir gifts from your trip. What I like about Koi Kei is that you can sample the product. They have boxes of each item that you can try out before you buy. I bought a couple things from here and I liked them both. The phoenix egg rolls are nice and crispy, but the key ingredient are the coconuts shavings inside. Though beware this product does not travel so well. The package I brought back was mostly intact, but there were a few egg roll pieces that were crumbled up. I would also recommend the orange peel cake that they have here. It is not for everyone, but I really like how fragrant it is and the texture of the pastry. It is nice to know that you don't have to make the trek across the water to Macau to get these delights. A trip to this store in Mong Kok will suffice.

Especially their almond cookies and peanut candies. I mean that is what they are famous for. The store is smaller than the Macau stores. Another thing you should be aware is that their prices is more expensive compared to the Macau store. $60 a bag of peanut candy here compared to $40 in Macau. Big difference! Service wise I prefer the Macua location one.

You can find the shops in Hong Kong but the prices are more expensive than getting it direct from Macau. There are multiple stores in Macau and from what I could tell, the prices were the same even if you were closer to the ferry. There are boxes of cookie, jerky, etc samples throughout the store and the employees are typically a little pushy to get you in and looking around. I think it's because that's half the battle. Once you're in and you try a sample, you'll walk out with full yellow bags of goodies! Highly recommend: Walnut and peanut brittle which was very light and crunchy vs the American version that feels like you're going to break your teeth! At $15 USD for a generous size box and gorgeous packaging, it was a great souvenir. We got packaged jerky instead of the fresh jerky that you can buy by the pound. The employee said it was the same but the packaged ones come in little 2" sealed chunks. Instructions say to heat it up prior to eating which resulted in a smoky microwave and super hot napalm covered jerky. Pineapple cakes: get the big box. Tender and almost crumbly cake / cookie outside and pineapple filling; you can see the chunks of fruit! Absolute perfection. Shortbread cookies: comes in multiple flavors. My son loved the chocolate chip the best. Some of the packaging at Kee Wah looks similar to Koi Kei but they are not the same. Both are good but Koi Kei is top notch. Can't wait to visit again!

One thing I do not understand is that the items in the HK Koi Kei is way more expensive than the Macau Koi Kei. I suggest you get it at Macau. Also the Macau Koi Kei is crazy packed full of people and HK Koi Kei is very quiet. I mean of course if you do not want to travel to Macau then you might as well get it here. I do enjoy their products!

If you haven't had dai pai dong, just note a few things: you will be sharing a table with others; bring your own napkins, clean your utensils, tip as they clean your table for you eventhough it seems like fast food (some won't take your tip though). A few things that stood out for me at this place is not only the friendly servers but also that they actually provide napkins and there's a pitcher of tea to share with the table and condiments. The food here was delicious, authentic (per my chinese friend) and inexpensive. Food is served family style. We shared the "deep fried pork and peppered salt," which was probably my fave. The seasoning tasted like five spice, and It's not greasy unlike american "deep frying." It's more of tossing the seasoned pork in light flour. We also had the clams in black bean sauce which was also amazing! The red pepper gave it the perfect kick! The squid in black bean sauce was also very tasty basically like the clams. My friend and I were full and happy when we left. They also serve beer and close late. Great for late night grub.

Harbour City is a shopping complex right beside the pier overlooking Victoria Harbour and with that offers a stunning view especially in the night when the city lights come alive. Along with the customer service and a map of the mall it's pretty massive enough that we got last and couldn't find the restaurant that we intended to try though browsing around majority of the shops are high end. There's quite a bit of selections available here regardless as I enjoyed looking at a health and wellness shop and some heath and beauty items as well. A great place to eat, browse and relax or just enjoy the view Harbour City is a beautiful modern complex that offers it all. Thank you!

This bakery is an old bakery in China and has tons of history! They are famous for their egg roll and pork. Very close to Times Square and the MTR station! Koi Kei Bakery is well known in Hong Kong and Macau! This bakery is good and offers a large variety of different pastries and snacks ranging from: Almond cookies, Chinese pastry with pork, peanut candy and many more options. The Portuguese tarts and the cashew nut cookies were my favorite! You can get individual or box pastries. The staffs here are very nice and speak English so I had no problems asking questions. Please note, that this is not a bakery where you can sit down and enjoy your pastries. It's more of a quick pick me up. If you are unsure on how something taste, no worries because more of the Koi Kei Bakeries have samples of different items. Koi Kei Bakery is all over Hong Kong so you will not miss it! The open at 9AM and open as late as 9PM. Make sure if you go, get the egg tart! They seem to be really good! REVIEW 219/196

Little did I know that I might stumble upon this gem when I was on my way to the Café Pacific inside Shui On Centre. As I was taking the escalator to the second floor, I could not help but notice on my left was this colourful store that had stuffed animals, school bags, books on display and I was like "That looks cool". And it only got better. Turns out this place is called Bookazine and it has branches everywhere in Hong Kong. As a bookstore, Bookazine of course provides selection of magazines, stationery. However, the best part is that it has CANDY STAND there and the variety of candies there are unbelievable, most are from the States and I immediately acted like a school boy literally in a candy store grabbing all kind of sweet. Apart from that, they always have tote bags, greet cards, etc. On top of that, they also have kids corner (which is really thoughtful as the grownups are reading, the kids can read some children books or choose to relax throwing beanbags there). They mainly sell English books so now you have one more place to go to look for your books except Metro and the other one. On their website you may also order books there and have the delivery or pickup at the store as well. I would say that this is one of the best bookstores I have seen in Hong Kong with its superb service and most importantly, the candy stand... Actually I am quite surprised to have found this place as it is really hidden and I did not see one single customer there when I was there on that day... well, good for me to spend some alone time there then.
