When we were in Beijing, maybe 5 years ago, DQ ice cream was dirt cheap. Was hoping for the same in HK.
Where's Fenwick?

here are some of the things I can't get or that are really expensive here....

-Shoes in US size 13
-Shirts in 3XL
-Jamaican beef patties
-Goya Sazon
-Dutch Masters & Newports (American tobacco)
-NYC pizza. (Probably what I miss most).
-Proactiv (http://www.proactiv.com ; I have this shipped over)
-Pinto beans

I think that pretty much covers my immediate needs/wants.

Oh wait...White Castle would be nice!

There are few stores for good quality basics, or good quality quirky clothes at reasonable prices.
Can we get basic items from Victoria's Secret, or similar quality products in HK?
