My first concert at the AsiaWorld-Arena


Jacky Cheung 1/2 Century Tour - Hong Kong

張學友1/2世紀演唱會最終站 - 香港 

May 22, 2012


First off, Jacky Cheung is my favorite out of all the Hong Kong pop singers. And he is an oldies. Most of the audience were in their mid 20s to 60s. You gotta live the 80s and still be his fan. 

The Arena is really huge, but I have to say the seating at HKD 600 a pop were not that great. I would rather go to the Hung Hom Coliseum. The stage was placed on the left and I was sitting facing the audience on the other side of the Arena and I basically had to turn my head to the left to watch the whole performance. 

When the shows starts at 8:15PM it literally starts right on the dot. I didn't stay till the end cause after 2 hours my neck called it quit. But Jacky kept on singing till midnight. He really never stops singing not even an intermission break in between. It was just awesome even at the 149th concert tour. His last day will be May 30th, 2012.

Food deliveries in Hong Kong

So far I am liking South Stream Seafoods.
They have fresh veggies and fresh meats, some organics and some gluten free products which I love. The online stores opens up for ordering every Saturday noon til 11am Monday and they deliver right to your door. You pay by check, cash or paypal. Order up to HKD500 for free delivery.

Next Taste is pretty good at their delivery services. And I actually learned that they outsource to local delivery service and I actually know my delivery guy. He is pretty cool. The delivery guy only get HKD 25.00 per delivery paid by Taste ... Taste is cheap ass. Again order up to HKD 500 for free delivery, but seriously I rather pay the delivery guy some fair wages. I tip him every time he comes by.

Little Giant is also great. Since they are remodeling they lowered their delivery fee. So now they are also at HKD 500 for free delivery. They have a great product selection for anyone with certain type of allergies or food intolerance. Payments are made via paypal.
