On the lighter note:the laser show looks like an attempt to communicate with ETs

LOL, I thought that as well!

I'm not sure about the CN tower height thing but I really hope you had a chance to eat somewhere else other the CN tower (pricey and meh food) If you made it to Chinatown, there's a chance you went by my house (it south of the University and east of China town)

I only eat at CN tower because of a social function (and i don't have to pay for it ). Didn't find china town but eat at this place called Sunrise grill for breakfast. First time I ate I made the mistake of ordering pancake for about 6 canadian dollars. They gave me something like this (not actual pic):

It was literally the size of a large plate and there were five of them! No way I was able to finish it. Food here was quite generous (like US, I suppose) For $20 you get good roasted pork rack and half a chicken for dinner. I heard maple syrup is big here but they're a bit sweet.

Most expensive place I ate was at victoria peak in HK. Half a duck and fried rice with soup for 500 HK dollars. View was worth it though. Lines very long and went there at night because I and my friend was told that the views are more stunning, and they are. Have to say it was very difficult to take good night pictures if you don't have anything to fix the camera and keep it still.

Some people aren't posting the massively "Poor part" of "booming" China.
I bet you can't post the same about US.

The pictures I posted were of the "poor" part.

Now, we can look at "booming" and "superpower" USA:

Detroit, 1950

Detroit, 2010

Don't buy things from the common "tourist spots" in Hong Kong, they will rip you off big-time. I'm glad you liked the view though.

Just go to any major centre of commerce and there will be all sorts of food available for low prices, and they will taste better than a 500 HK dollar Peking duck.

I thought "Guang Shi Kao Ya" were different from Peking ducks. Are the ones that Chinese Dragon was referring to Peking or Cantonese style roast ducks?

We do make a lot of Peking duck in Hong Kong, because a lot of foreigners have heard of it and like to order it. And personally, I love to eat Peking duck.

What I was saying to no_name is that you should try to avoid buying food at "tourist spots" in Hong Kong, when you can get a cheaper and equally good version elsewhere.

Actually Hongkong is well known as a "shopping paradise" in the world, food is pretty famous too, especially sea food, peking duck will be one of it.
