In the past I usually bought trendy clothing in the Mong Kok district like the Argyle Centre or Fa Yuen Street since the things there are relatively cheaper. Later my friends got fed up with the Mong Kok stores and suggested shifting to Kwai Chung Plaza, which is another popular shopping area, instead. Actually if I take a bus from Sha Tin, the time used to get to Kwai Chung and Mong Kok is more or less the same. The former is located next to the Kwai Fong MTR station and a bus terminus, so the accessibility is also high. What's more, you can avoid traffic jams happening at the Nathan Road! Together with the low-priced goods sold there, the plaza can be considered as another paradise for teenagers.
The boutiques usually open at 11am or noon, so before unleashing the shopaholic's power, let's restore some energy first. There are plenty of restaurants for you to choose in the plaza. The G/F is like a food court and having a meal there is always cheap. Typical fast food shops like Yoshinoya and Café de Coral are also located there. Of course you can also head to the 3/F where you can find a number of food stalls selling pancakes, curry fish balls, cold noodles, bubble tea, or even bowls of rice of $13! So you can save some money for your shopping budget!
Most of the stores are selling ladies' clothing cheaply and sometimes the quality is acceptable. That's a reason why I prefer going there rather than shopping from Taobao - you can check the product, and please remember to do so! Apart from clothing and accessories, there are some stores selling Korean cosmetic and skin-care products at a reasonable price. Actually some stores have similar items sold, or one is the similar branch of another one. So you can compare the price and quality of the product, or buy the similar item from another branch but with the same price. Also because of this reason I easily get lost there as the stores arranged in the same level are more or less identical. If you're interested in a product and decide to come back later, remember to mark down the name of the shop as well as its features! read more
