-
Great range of shoes, particularly their eponymous label.
-
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.
-
This was the original beacon of cool in TST. Floor after floor of mini-boutiques from young local designers.
-
More than 70 stalls showcasing all manner of songbirds and (mostly legal) exotica, bounded by elegant courtyards, full of old men with white singlets rolled up to bare their bellies (one of Hong Kong’s odder fashion statements). A flower market is also nearby (see Flower Market).
-
Big branch of the cut-price chain store. Stock up on comfy cotton T-shirts, socks and khakis.
-
No, there are no more cats here than anywhere else in Hong Kong. Cat Street refers instead to the Chinese slang for odds and ends. It and nearby Hollywood Road are chock full of antique and curio shops. This is the place for silk carpets, elegant Chinese furniture, Ming dynasty ceramic horsemen and Maoist kitsch.
-
Cheap, sturdy woks, steamers, choppers and pretty much everything else you might desire for the well-equipped kitchen.
-
More sweet-smelling goodies to pamper yourself with here. The smell of lavender pot-pourri nearly knocks you over as you enter.
-
If cigars are your thing, there’s an impressive array of stogies here.
