Prior to this trip, I went online and redeemed my Asia Miles points for 'A Symphony of Lights' dinner cruise voucher for 2 adults with Harbour Cruise-Bauhimia. I have to bring the voucher to the ferry pier at North Point in exchange for the tickets. For this cruise, we got to enjoy 'A Symphony of Lights' show, dinner buffet, live band performance and cruise around Victoria Harbour for two hours. They also have sunset dinner cruise for those of you who prefer watching the sunset and you can purchase tickets from their office or make online reservations. Prices are from HK$ 250 onwards.

After that hearty meal, we walked along Wellington Street towards Central. We came across Mak's Noodles, fame for its wonton. This restaurant received the Bib Gourmand distinction in MICHELIN guide Hong Kong/Macau 2010 and many famous people have tried this place including Anthony Bourdain. While we were there, we bumped into Hong Kong singer Kenny B. We asked the staff for recommendations and they were very helpful. We noticed the portions were slightly smaller than what you would normally find in Hong Kong but it makes up in it's taste and luckily we were still quite full from the congee. Noodles were chewy and quite tasty. We love the shrimp wonton...fresh and chrunchy!
