Going Out

Located on the far side of the Western district, Kennedy Town has spent years as a quiet, local neighborhood for families. In the past it was also an arrival point for many mainland immigrants, hence all the Chiu Chow-style soy braised goose restaurants in the area. However, with the arrival of the MTR in 2014, and increasing numbers of young, successful types moving in, watch out for rocketing rent prices and the opening of commercialized chain-store branches. Yet the area at present still retains its local neighborhood feel mixed with some cool locations, so check out these places for good food, unique shopping and a drink or two to round up your journey.
