Just Your Typical Michelin Two Star Restaurant. . .In A Mall

Our Saturday guide, Bill, had told us to check out the Bruce Lee statue, which is east along the Kowloon waterfront from the center of the pier (basically at the end of Nathan Street).

(Apparently, Nathan Street was not named after man about town, Nathan Klein, but it should have been.)

We walked and walked a ways before we came to it.  The statue is a sight to behold, with a fountain below it.  Bruce attracts a crowd even at night.  Very cool.

The Master Himself.

Okay, so that was worth the extra walk (heck, we're doing ten miles a day, so what's a bit more!).

We walked back to the Mira area.  I had seen a two-star  Michelin restaurant in the food loft area of Mira Place 1 mall -- Sun Tung Lok.  Not sure of what time we would be back from the Dukling, I set reservations for 9:30 pm (the kitchen closes at 10 pm).  Following my dad's saying of "the rich eat late, and so do we" Carol and I ate late.

They put us in a nice booth with a curtain (left open), and we ended up having private dining, as shortly after we arrived, the few other customers there late on a Sunday night left.  I did not order any of the expensive 100 point first growth Bordeaux wines (calling them pricey would be an understatement). 

The food was amazing and the service was impeccable.  Then we walked across the enclosed bridge connecting the mall with the hotel.  It was a great night!
