Hong Kong essentials

Hypebeast's essentials feature got me thinking what i need from day to day in HK, Heres a few...

Sunglasses

Its bright almost every day at this time of year, making eyewear a must.

Iced lemon tea

'Dung ling tsar' in Cantonese. I cant get enough of it, a perfect thirst quencher when your its 30 degrees & your lost in Mong Kok.

Octopus card

A great way to avoid unwanted coins!

Suitable footwear

Walking around takes its toll on your feet, i found these to be sufficient so far (Note to reader: Vans chukka's are not a good option!)

Black Chocoolate

Some really nice bits in this store to my suprise. A poor's mans Neighborhood maybe, but still. Definitely an option if your short on cash! Check the website for a small selection of whats avaliable http://www.chocoolate.hk/.
