Are these details incorrect?

1. The Avenue

Ask for a table near the street, preferably under the glass-roofed section of the restaurant. Floor-to-ceiling plate glass windows provide the perfect vantage point to look down on Nathan Road’s passing parade. (Imaginative fusion food, too.)
2. Chungking Mansions

Hours of harmless fun to be had watching the endless stream of freaks, geeks and desperados being accosted by a legion of touts (see Kowloon - Tsim Sha Tsui, Chungking Mansions & Chungking House).
3. Mirador Mansions

Not as famous as its above-mentioned neighbour, but entertaining nonetheless. More weirdos. More confused backpackers.
4. Kowloon Park

Best spot is on the benches near the fountain in the centre of the park. In summer, there is a constant and colourful procession along the path (see Kowloon Park).
5. Felix

If the wallet won’t stand up to a meal, just drink in the bar and watch everyone watching everyone else (see Felix).
6. Harbour City

A people-watcher’s paradise. Massive labyrinth of interconnected malls with plenty of cafés and benches to park upon and soak up the orgy of conspicuous consumption (see Harbour City).
7. Spoon

Since Alain Ducasse opened it, Spoon has been the venue of choice for Hong Kong’s most beautiful people. Look at them or at the 550 spoons on the ceiling
8. The Langham Hotel

Understated and elegant, the Langham attracts clientele of the same ilk, such as screen star Michelle Yeoh, perhaps on her way to T’ang Court.
9. Hèagen Daaz

A frosty oasis when the mercury soars, with a glass bar and stools to perch upon while you gaze out at the hot and harried shoppers elbowing each other along the Golden Mile.
10. Chaser’s Pub

Primo people-watching along groovy Knutsford Terrace, one of Hong Kong’s best-kept secrets.
