Official Urban Sketcher Blog Correspondent!!

I am now an official Urbansketcher blog correspondent with effect from October 2010. It is a wonderful opportunity to share my sketches and stories with the rest of the world especially now that I am in Hong Kong.

Thye Hong prawn noodle @ Wisma, Singapore

The owner of this famous prawn noodle store at downtown Orchard found my sketch recently and wrote to me out of the blue. He said he wants to use my sketch for his new banner!! I am a very big fan of his noodle. This really trills me. I am so dying to eat this prawn noodle next weekend when I am back in Singapore.

Sketches from my backyard - Wanchai Market, HK

Sketches from my own backyard - Tai Yuen Street, HK

This is tai yuen aka The Toy Street. You can find many shops selling toys and very popular with parents and kids on the weekends. I live just right at the start of the street.

Fishmonger @ WanChai Market, HK

Sketches from my own backyard here in Wanchai Hong Kong. I really like how the old orange lamps are hanging above the fishes which are kept in small Styrofoam boxes.

Stanley Beach / Market, Hong Kong

Good old mobile softee van selling ice cream at Stanley beach on a lazy saturday afternoon.

The PAWN, Hong Kong

A few streets from my apartment, this building used to be a big huge Pawn shop in the old days. Now it is nicely restored and functions as a restaurant and bar. Hope to check out this place and have a drink there some day.

Mango mooncakes anyone?

Wishing everyone happy mid autumn festival. I managed to get my hands on some D24 durian mooncakes here in Sogo too. I hope to eat more mooncakes before they are all gone.
