Dinner @ 花家怡園 in Beijing

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Beijing. Both food and beer are very good.
花家怡園是一座四合院式的餐廳,可充分顯現出老北京的宅門特色,我個人非常喜歡這裡的菜餚,啤酒更是不可錯過的絕佳選擇,席間還有老翁獻唱,氣氛十分地熱鬧

Milonga @ Helena May Dance Studio





我個人非常喜歡這個舞會地點, 進入前會通過狹長的走道,並穿過一個綠意盎然的美麗花園, 舞池十分有味道, 有挑高的天花板和復古的擺設, 不想跳舞, 也可以在戶外呼吸新鮮的空氣, 今晚跳的很盡興, DJ宣布舞會結束時, 我一點都不想離開.....只好去喝一杯了...

Many thanks to my colleagues Doris and Pamela who took me to such a nice restaurant.

Tai Woo Sea Food Restaurant in Hong Kong





在銅鑼灣的這家店-太湖海鮮城, 在入口樓梯的牆壁上掛滿了各式獎狀及名人用餐的照片, 不知這家店是虛有其名還是我不會點菜, (點了螃蟹,琵琶蝦和三色豆腐) 覺得菜色普通, 略嫌油膩

Salsa @ Xperience in Hong Kong

I really love this Sunday night salsa party in Hong Kong. The host is super friendly. He even introduced me to the crowd that I'm from Taipei and asked people to keep me dance all night. The music is excellent!! After 2 hours salsa dancing at the party, I feel salsa is back to my life again. Hm...how come I forgot to take photos!!!

Exective Floor @ Park Lane Hotel




Due to many fairs in Hong Kong recently, the cost for each night to stay at Park Lane Hotel is HKD2,250+13% during my business trip. It's really too expensive in terms of the quality. Good thing for this hotel is the location. It's really close to our Hong Kong office, just one block away, it's also close to all of the shopping places in Causeway.
香港的旅館價格真是高的嚇人, 每次出差所付的房價都是屢創新高, 因為最近有很多展覽在香港舉行, 我住在柏寧酒店的費用是每晚港幣2,250+13%,這個酒店真的不怎麼樣,卻要付出如此高的代價,要不是就在香港辦公室的隔壁,真捨不得花公司的錢住在這
