  • A good bet if you fancy a spicy curry, although the surroundings aren’t pretty.

  • Hong Kongers love Italian, and they have taken this place to heart. Share plates and make yourself at home.

  • Apliu Street

    This huge street market is full of all sorts of strange junk and pirated goods. You’ll feel you’re on another planet here – this is as “local” as Hong Kong gets. It includes perhaps the world’s biggest collection of secondhand electrical stuff. Occasionally you can spot the odd retro turntable or radio, but most of it is rubbish.

  • Sit in a cubbyhole facing the window and sip a glass of bubbly as you watch the harbour light up.

  • Great range of shoes, particularly their eponymous label.

  • A little worn around the edges, but still the best watering hole on trendy Knutsford Terrace. DJs play a range of sounds, there’s table football (“foosball”), surfboards and alcoholic slurpees.

  • Chilled vodka shots in a room at freezer temperatures. A fur coat is provided.

  • The décor is more rustic than Russian. Trypiroshkies ,borscht or a cold shot of Stoli.

  • The porcelain and ceramic vases and wicker-work flower baskets may not win awards for chic or design, but the choice is impressive and the prices are reasonable.

  • Audophiles will drool over the sleek designs and crystal clarity from one of the most distinguished names in sound.
