What is it: Starbucks in Hong Kong style. Only found in Hong kong.

Address: Floor M2, Baskerville House, 13 Duddell St, Central, Hong Kong

I just found out there is another old Starbucks at Mongkok! You may want to visit this instead! (:
89-91 Sai Yee Street, 1F-2F Wai Kee House, Mong Kok, Hong Kong.

Cost: $6 dollars SGD for coffee. Btw, Starbucks has standard pricing around the world. HAHA.

Worth to go: Hmm, only if you have the time. Since i went hkg so many times, i am determined to see things i didnt see before. If you are in the vicinity, this Starbucks is worth your camera's memory card. Afterall. its just a place for coffee and tea. Starbucks menu is almost the same everywhere. Its v out of the way.

How to go: I have no idea. I have a GPS bf. Its not that far from the hotel i stay in though!

Went there after a short rest at the hotel. I know if i slp, I will waste the entire afternoon away. I am so shagged after my half marathon. HAHA. This trench coat is so pretty, but i am too short for it. For the price, I might as well sell it and get a cheaper one! HAHA.

I tell you, black coat really v ugly. So boring. LOL. I look at my Tasmania photos and sian cause its so black. LOL.

Finally here!

East-meets-West modernization Starbucks. This starbucks is a replica of the 冰室 (”Bing Sutt”). A direct translation is called Ice Room. HAHA. Its the Hongkong coffeehouse back from 1950’s to 1970’s.Once you step in, you thought you travelled back in time.

Every detail is meticulously attended to, ensure you are in a totally different environment. This is oldies theme. From antique-like fans to tables to chairs to walls to floor tiles to ceiling to old adaptors switches. You just stepped into a time machine and went back to mama's era.

I cant say that its truly nostalgic walk down the memory lane for me. Because, i dont rmb seeing this when i was born. LOL. HAHAHA. If you are middle aged, its probably really a revisit to your old days.

A glimpse to the past and you soon realised. Technology travels at the speed of light. We no longer see them anymore. Those are past tense. Now its LCD 40" full HD flat television. HAHAHA.

They even "dirtied" the clock w stains. LOL. ROFL. Putting alot of effort for the details!

Truth is, I have difficulty reading the menu in chinese. LOL.

Which one do you like?

I was so busy with my photo taking. I cant be bothered to go take a look on what they offered to eat. Right after a half marathon, i am famished. LOL. The Coffee Cocktail Bun (Kai mei bau) as well as Butter Pineapple Bun and Coffee Tart are the exclusive treats sold at this outlet.
