paris is home to cafe culture.  although espressos aren't probably as good as in italy, i still enjoyed my daily cup of coffee at a random coffee shop in paris along with hundreds of others

Cheung Chau

About an hour on a slow ferry (or 35 minutes on a "fast ferry") from Hong Kong's Central Pier lies a small island called Cheung Chau.  I went there with a friend's sister and had some seafood at a small outdoor restaurant reminscent of the Malaysian hawker restaurants you see around KL.  For a grand total of A$40, we had prawns, crab with ginger and shallots and noodles, sweet & sour pork and chinese vegetables for two.  What a bargain.  Cheung Chau is a fishing island and is also popular with couples wanting to "get away" for the night... you know what that means!  Babies
