Hong Kong is well-known for the diverse and delicious cuisine off and on the streets. Here are some of my personal favorites.

Shiu mai -a well-known dim sum treat. Around $1.2 a bowl of 12.

The ones you get on the street are usually made with fish meat unlike the pork meat shiu mais you get at dimsum. The fish meat ones are usually accompanied by soya sauce and hot sauce. They even sell microwave ones in 7/11.

Hong Kong style egg waffles, my personal favorite. $1.2 per bag.

It’s a very ancient street snack that’s been passed on in the Hong Kong culture. I guess it just never lost its popularity =]. They’re sold everywhere on the streets, there are some famous ones such as the one right across of Time Square, which are very crispy but not very sweet. So, depending on your own taste, you may find different stores better.

Hong Kong style calamari – deep fried octopus legs, pepper and salt. $2 a bag.

I’m just going to go ahead and say they’re delicious artery cloggers.

Women’s street is a long outdoor market selling almost anything, fake and cheap of course.  LV wallets, handbags, tees, stuff toys, true religion jeans, anything you can think of, you can get here.

One downfall of course is that it’s always packed by thousands of people. And since it’s outdoor, during the summer it’s not unusual to have to shop in the unbearable humidity and heat, or even at times, the pouring rain.

Street food is everywhere. They’re delicious. There are the traditional shiu mai (basically the same thing you get at dim sum), sausages, fish balls, and much more.

Another main attraction of Mong Kok is the sneaker street. The whole street is full of Nike, Puma, Adidas, and local stores that sell the latest shoe models from mainly US and Japan.

GET READY!!!

Although ratings from the US audience pulled my expectations down quite a bit, I’m still thrilled for its first screening in Hong Kong on the 26th this month. After all, these are the childhood hero and villains I grew up watching and admiring. At the very least, it “scratches the itch action fans have had since the ’80s,’” as some reviews put it.

So far, criticics point fingers to the overuse of testosterone-driven actions, the dumb plot, excessive violence and etc. Let’s not forget that this is a movie with 9 all-time badasses, who are known mainly for the size of their muscles, not their witty crime-solving capabilities.

Critics are comparing the actor’s performances to those of more recent action stars, like Robert Downey Junior in Iron Man, or Will Smith, in his countless save-the-world films; others, put the Expendables next to Stallone classics, such as Rambo and Rocky. Have we forgotten that Schwarzenegger is 63 this year? Stallone is 64 and Rourke, 57! They are or can be grandfathers by now. I’m just glad they’re still up and about, and still able to be so badass doing whatever they do.

The Expendables can easily be the last old-school testosterone fest by these action veterans. Even if it’s not as well-made as it should be, I think it deserves a chance, just for old times’ sake.
