There are two levels to this…read morefacility: the lower level, where you can pick up your needed groceries and the upper level where you can find pre-made meals. Warning, however, if you are expecting Western Style dining, forget about it. During prime eating times there are a million locals eating at community tables. If you're down for that, it's a great experience. In terms of what they serve, it is true Hong Kong style. If you love that cuisine, this is your place. Overall, fun place to eat. If not, just make a visit as that too can be fun.

There are plenty of places to buy fruit in HK, but I have chanced upon a great little stall/hole in…read morethe wall shop, that sells the slightly more off beat fruits. Based in Tin Hau, a block or so away from the MTR along Electric Road, is this little mom and pop fruit stall, which does exactly that, it sells more off beat fruits, rather than the standard fare. First thing I notice is that the fruit is fresh and ripe, but not spoiled. I find in the supermarkets in HK, they have a habit of packaging fruit and veg into bags with x number of pieces, only for you to get home and find the half of them are rotten. Here, like a market stall, you can choose your fruit individually, and they charge by weight, not number. There is always plenty on display, but never so much that they have to keep the products out to spoil. They must actually do a roaring and fast turning trade. The main highlight for me and Mrs L, is the availability of slightly odd fruits, like custard apples. Some of these things are not so available in HK, so it's good to have a stall that has them in season. Give it a go, the staff are surprisingly nice, given it is a market stall and stall holders can be surprisingly pushy, these folks are happy for you to browse and take photos, even if you don't end up buying.

Mong kok market is such a fun place for shopping and food. The shops in the streets and the ones in…read morethe buildings, both have such huge amount of goods, selling at a very reasonable price. We bought good quality jackets, dresses, pajamas from here from bunch of shops. Also got lots of souvenirs at least than half of price compared to stores in malls and airports. There are many bakery and restaurants near the streets. All selling amazing and delicious looking HK style foods. We had some quick bites while shopping, all tasted so good. I'd highly recommended this area to all tourists looking to pack up their luggage with lots of shopping.

So interesting to visit the Wan Chai Market with Jacky from This Is Asia Tours…read more Wan Chai was established in the 1930s as a wet market, or a local market for fresh fish, fruits, vegetables and meat. Today, you can still choose from a wide variety of fresh fish or other seafood. That is fish that are alive in a small tank swimming and thrashing. You choose your fish, or other amphibian dinner choice, and they kill, skin and scale it for you to take home and cook. Can't get much fresher than that unless you caught it yourself. Apparently they used to have poultry as well in the past. Fears of avian flu have made that market offering virtually obsolete. The selection of baskets and baskets of fresh fruits and vegetables was quite impressive. Rambutan. Longan. Durian. Cherries. Mangosteen. Water spinach. Choi sum. Grab some spices, too. There are also bakeries filled with egg tarts and pineapples buns (that don't have pineapple) and a shop that sells snake soup that does have snake. Did not sample that one. Shop like a local at the Wan Chai Wet Market.

I especially like the stall run by 2 Thai women who stock things like Thai basil, super spicy Thai chilis that are more flavourful than most others out there, among other staples found in Thai cuisine. I am somewhat disappointed that there are not more fruit stalls. The fish is just as good here as it was from Ap Lei Chau market and about the same price... I really need to make it to the wholesale food market during the early hours to make a comparison, but it seems last time I was there-- only large quantities were available.

What an experience. I truly wished I had a hotel with a kitchen because the markets in Hong Kong…read morehad so much fresh seafood. The market was filled with trinkets, souvenirs, fruits, vegetables and seafood. It was a one of kind experience and where the locals get all their groceries. They have smaller homes with small kitchens so you buy what you need for the moment not like how I shop at Costco for the month. It a way to cut back on the waste and only buy what you need. Seeing the live seafood squirm around was nothing like the grocery store. It is nice knowing your meal was not frozen but fresh. No matter which booth the service was ready and willing to sell whatever your heart desires. The streets were lined with booths and vendors as well as under the freeways had something for everyone. Knowing the language is the only way to survive these markets especially with local delights you're unfamiliar with. It's always wonderful to emerge into the local customs while traveling. I wish I had farmers markets daily up the street from me what a treat this was!

Come around noon for the best catch of the day as that's the time when most fishermen would be bring their freshly caught seafood to the market. There are a handful of stalls where you can get all kind of seafood. The selection is all a little different so spend some time to look around and decide before purchasing! You can also able to bargain down the price if you are skilled and enjoy doing that. Shrimps, Crabs, Fish, Squid and more. After your purchase, you have the option to bring them upstairs to the food court and have one of the stalls cook them for you. Please verify the cost of cooking/ingredients before committing! There is no standard set price and after you finished eating, it would be too late to complain they overcharged you! The star here is definitely the seafood! As they are so fresh all you need to just steam them and they would taste so delicious. So if you have your own kitchen, I would also suggest buying some and cook them at home.
