Unar Coffee Company & Feelsogood

2:22 AM

Continuing our day as we planned, finally we are able to find our way to Unar Coffee Company. It's a miracle that we can find this coffee place because it turns out that this place is located in Tai Hang area which is one MTR stop further from Causeway Bay. So me and Albert walk long enough to get here. We immediately ordered cold drinks because we are very thirsty. I don't drink coffee often, but I love the taste of the coffee here.

As you can see Unar Coffee Company is not like any other coffee shop. The shop is a hole-in-the-wall coffee service inspired by Europe's popular standing espresso bars. You can find a bench outside and if you're lucky you can find a seat, but if not you can mingle outside and have a drink surrounded by old residential buildings.

Unar Coffee Company have two locations in Hong Kong. One is at Tai Hang and the other one at the Tsim Sha Tsui side. I loved Tai Hang area because you can find a lot of restaurants, cafes and shops. I also enjoy strolling around this old alley. The neighbourhood is really quite and beautiful.

Just behind the Unar Coffee Company, you can find Feelsogood design shop. In here you can find retro style furniture and a lot of vintage pendant lights. Unique light bulbs and many other interesting objects can be found here as well. The things that make me so happy is that the staff is really friendly. She thought me and Albert come from Japan and she allows us to take photo in her shop. Thank you Ms. or Mrs.! Surely we will come back here.

The Coffee Academics

10:31 PM

Today is a really bright day in Hong Kong and it is really nice to stroll around this city early in morning. Sadly this is our last day in Hong Kong before we go back to our hometown tomorrow. Today we decide to go on separate group, me and Albert decided to go together to explore some areas in Hong Kong to take pictures and try a lot of foods.

First stop we went to Causeway Bay area. We decided to go to a coffee place first, because we haven't had our breakfast. We are planning to go to Unar Coffee Company, but we ended up at The Coffee Academics. I'm not good at reading maps and we don't have a GPS. We go around only by printed map that I googled before we go to Hong Kong and I didn't capture the directions properly so.. we got lost. But thank God we ended up at this place, because they served breakfast here.

As you can see from the name The Coffee Academics is a cafe that specialize in coffee. Every cup of coffee is unique and done with care to bring the experience alive. The cafe launched in 2012 and now they have five outlets in Hong Kong and soon to be open in Singapore.

The Coffee Academic offers breakfast menu, we ordered Academics Breakfast and Caesar Salad. The breakfast's okay, but the caesar salad is delicious. Albert is not a fan of vegetables, but he loves it. We have a good breakfast here and we're ready to explore Hong Kong!

Hong Kong Disneyland! (Part II)

10:50 PM

Still from Hong Kong Disneyland, we continue our journey in this magical land. After we rides many of the attractions, it's time for us to see the entertainment. The first entertainment we see is Festival of The Lion King. I always love musical and I really enjoy watching this. The song reminded me of my childhood when I watched Lion King for the first time in 1994. All the memories are still there and I love it even more now. You can watch this show at Theater in The Wild in Adventureland. The show plays four times in a day, you can check the show time at the information board in front of the theater or at the park show schedule flyer.

After we see the king of jungle, we continue our magical journey to watch The Golden Mickey. The Golden Mickey is musical show presented in the style of an awards ceremony. There are five award categories: heroism, symphony, villains, friendship and romance up for grab. All the nominations are from Disney movie character. Sadly this show has closed on July 26, 2015, but there will be a new show called "Mickey and The Wondrous Book" which will start on November 2015.

The Golden Mickey Award was opened by Pluto, Goofy and Donald Duck.

Time flies quickly here, it's nighttime already and we prepare to wait at the Main Street, U. S. A. to watch "Disney Paint the Night" Parade. When the parade began, it really lights up the night. You can see our favorite Disney's character glowing and paint the night with their magical appearance. Tonight Hong Kong Disneyland transformed into outdoor party with vibrant colors and cheerful music.

Mickey & friends made the parade finale feels complete. They really illuminate the streets of Hong Kong Disneyland. After the parade finished, we are looking for food because we are very hungry. Unfortunately it suddenly rains and we didn't bring any umbrella, so we just eat at the nearest restaurant. Luckily there is Corner Cafe around the block. Corner Cafe is a Victorian indoor diner with collection of vintage Coca-Cola memorabilia. You can taste Middle-American and Chinese comfort foods. Me and my friends decide to share our dinner, we ordered an asparagus salad and a meatball pasta.

Last but not least, don't forget to catch the final magical entertainment "Disney in The Stars" Fireworks.

Hong Kong Disneyland! (Part I)

10:43 PM

Hong Kong Disneyland definitely is a must place to visit in Hong Kong especially for all Disney's lovers like me. I love Disney so much! My childhood life is filled mostly with Disney even until now and it always become my dream to visit Disneyland. Luckily for me this is the second time I visit Disneyland, the first one was at Tokyo DisneySea in Japan. I'm always excited when I land my feet in this magical land, no matter how old I am I think I will always excited to go here.

It is so easy to go to Disneyland by MTR because they have Disneyland Resort Line. You will ride this cute Mickey Mouse themed train that will bring you directly to Disneyland. Finally we arrived at this magical land! We go directly to the ticket counter to buy the park ticket, the tickets are themed from the movie Toy Story. I take Slinky as my ticket because I had a dachshund before. Now we are ready to play at this magical land.

The first thing we do after we enter Disneyland is to go to the park information shelf. We take the park map and show schedule. It is very important to arrange your time here because Disneyland offers many shows and entertainments that you can see and enjoy and you don't want to miss it.

We were welcomed by Disneyland Band at the Main Street, U.S.A. After passing the Main Street, we decided to play at Tomorrowland. We played Space Mountain and Autopia. Time flies quickly here, it's afternoon already. Don't forget to grab a lunch because we still have a long day to go. We had our quick lunch at Clopin's Festival of Foods, they serve Chinese food here.

Meet Alien! One of my favorite character in Toy Story. I'm really happy when I get this balloon so I wear it around my arm the whole day. To get this you must find this balloon man that will walking around the park, you will need to answer three questions before he makes it for you. Besides Alien, the balloon man can make Pluto and Rose.

Don't forget to try their delicious ice cream. It's really good to eat ice cream on sunny day. Me and my friends buy different kind of flavors, they are buying Mickey Mouse Ice Cream Bar and Dole Chocolate Banana Dippers. For me, I choose Stitch Sherbet Bar because I love Stitch so much! Stitch's paw is really cute and the blueberry flavor really refreshing. I'm a happy kid now.

Welcome to Toy Story Land. In this land we ride two exciting attractions. First is Toy Soldier Parachute Drop and the second on is RC Racer. The RC Racer ride quite scare me, because it has a big drops and moves really fast and I'm not really good with thrill rides. There are seven lands inspired by fairy-tale dreams that you can explore. I already mention four of them, the other are Grizzly Gulch, Mystic Point and Fantasyland.

I'm ending these Hong Kong Disneyland, Part I posts with one of my favorite ride Mystic Manor. Have a great day!
