Who's in Hong Kong

Who on Metafilter is in HK? I have come half way around the world, and would love to meet you.

I am in Hong Kong till next Sunday. I would love to see which Mefites are located here. I was thinking Saturday night and dinner. I am staying off the beaten track (Ma On Shan), but would willingly travel to Kowloon or Central. Suggestions are very welcome, as I am very much a farang in these parts. All I ask is that we avoid any backpacker type bars.

Oh what! I was in Ma On Shan on Friday evening. A friend and I hopped on a random bus that took us all the way to Wu Kai Sha; ended up taking the trains back into China.

Damn, passports going in to renew visas, so we won't be in Hong Kong this weekend.

Do you like dimsum? Saturday night is good. There's a place very near Central (in Sheung Wan, one subway stop away) that serves dimsum at night.
