mooched around Mong Kok (near my Cordis Langham hotel)
How is the Cordis? I stayed there when it was still Langham Place so am interested to understand how it has changed, if at all....

I have to agree with Febs.The Big Buddha is a bit of a let down, but the cable car ride is worthwhile.
Beware of going to the Big Buddha and the Peak on weekends, the queues can be very long
We made the error of a weekend visit, the queue was horrendous. Someone walked passed advertising crystal and private cabins .... Went straight to the front and saved god knows how long.
IMO the cable car over to Ocean Park
was a better ride.
A bit of a bump to this thread. How about dining in the dark served by vision impaired people:
ALCHEMY IN THE DARK
WHERE Hong Kong
WHAT’S SPECIAL ABOUT IT? Those looking for a sensory and social experience should head to Alchemy in the Dark, where guests dine in total darkness. Even light emitting devices such as mobile phones have to be stored outside of the main dining area.The intimate setting has only 24 seats, and hires visually impaired waiting staff to serve the dishes. A percentage of the proceeds are also directed to blind-related charities in Hong Kong.
MENU Part of the experience is to have a surprise menu - guests aren't told the details of their dishes until after their meal! This forces diners to use their other senses to experience the meal. Having said that, the restaurant features a changing menu of Western dishes, which are presented as finger food in an attempt to alleviate the trickiness of using cutlery in the dark!
ADDRESS LG/F, 16 Arbuthnot Rd, Central, Hong Kong
OPENING HOURS Noon-11pm
