Hey, I was there. That place is really close to the hotel where I lived.

It's a restaurant that caters to HK residents (rather than tourists) in that you really have to fight (almost literally) the other customers for the good dishes!

I love that. It's a place where you can experience local residents' lives without some tourism shit. When I was there, people around me were almost 60+ grandpa/grandma.

Hah, I'm going to the airport tonight to Hong Kong and will be on my own for 2 weeks trying to find relatives and things to entertain me with limited cantonese

Mong Kok, Tsim Tsah Tsui, The Peak, Kowloon, Hong Kong Island (bit general) all have fair bit of stuff to do. Just ask around for directions I guess

This. I used to go here all the time, the food is great! If you're into computers you can check out the Computer Cities in Wan Chai, Mong Kok, and Sham Shui Po.

It really depends on where you live, but as long as your hotel is close to a MTR station then you'll be fine. Generally taking the taxi is not that expensive, the meter starts at $18 HKD (~$2.5 USD).

If you're into bars and pubs you should go visit Lan Kwai Fong in Central or Knutsford in TST, and if you're into the HK skyline be sure to check out the Symphony of Lights every night at 8:
