I live in Hong Kong and we go out way more here than we did when we lived in the US...of course if you really want to you can eat cheap and still get quality food here, wasnt the case when I was in SF.

100 - 1000 depending on the occasion.
100 any day
1000 on bdays..

Dinner for my BF and I usually costs about $60-70. If we do a movie about $40. If we hit a bar after the movie $30. $150 is about right. And he pays.

Last time he made me pay and it cost over $200. It was nice of him to invite a few of his friends along on MY bar tab.

yeah everything you mentioned is absolutely correct. As far as variety of food I have yet to see another city that even comes close to what you get here, you can spend as little as $1 of some good noodles at a small corner place or spend $1000 at a fancy restaraunt. The one thing about HK food is just cause it's cheaper doesnt make it any less in terms of quality.

Believe me, during my single days I used to eat out pretty much every day and I probably spent less than I do now on groceries.

Oh and if you ever come for a visit make sure you have the curry fishballs from the roadside stalls, sounds bad but tastes awesome and is a tradition.

Where do you guys live that you can go out for under $100? When I used to bar hop in San Francisco I would drop $200-$300 easily. If I hit a strip club it would end up being a $600 + night. Those of you spending less than $100 must live in the suburbs, drive to one location and never leave.

Hmm well a fun night of dinner, drinks, and pool is about:
$60 for dinner
$15 per hour on the pool table
$30-50 for drinks
soo I guess about $120ish.

scottybuzz · 04-18-2008, 06:03 PM

munki · 04-18-2008, 06:11 PM

Spunky · 04-18-2008, 06:33 PM

I left SF/bay area to come back to live here so for me this feels like home. I can't speak for all Americans who live here (and there are queit a few) but I personally know more than a dozen who moved here on temporary status (work contracts with Investment banks) and then moved back to the US and then within a year moved back here permanantly.

if you have never been I would recommend visiting atleast once in your life, it's definetely different from anywhere else. Of course you can say that about most cities in Asia, each has their own charm.

Just dont come here if you are closterphobic, if you hate crowds, or in the middle of the summer if you arn't used to humid climates. Oh and PLEASE dont be one of those who come here and only eat at places like Mcdonalds or Olivers (a posh version of Subway).

sounds awesome thanks for the tip.. I walked back about three blocks to get seconds from a street pancake vendor last time I was in HK so this time I'll make it a point to try the curry fishballs.
