Hong Kong is a mixed bag of a city. It is where Mercedes outnumber taxi cabs, partygoers count down to Christmas every December 24, and larger-than-life billboards of fortune tellers and cram school tutors compete with breath-taking skylines. This is a collection of essays by a popular blogger who zeroes in on the citys idiosyncrasies with deadpan precision. At once an outsider looking in and an insider looking out, Ng has created something for everyone: a travel journal for the passing visitor, a users manual for the wide-eyed expat, and an open diary for the native Hong Konger looking for moments of reflection.
