Can't remember the exact location law.....between Mong Kok & Kowloon Tong.....nice that you mention that, nearly forgot lu.
Actually, there was another one on 窩打老道 right beside 芝柏.(about 30 years ago)
They have all those toys, plus I got my first copy of TinTin from them too.

Was it near the street where they sell flowers?

 

Very late night posting... are you in a different time zone, bro fumoon?

Toronto here.

Remember there was this BUS that ran onto the sidewalk at Waterloo Road a couple months ago?....that's the exact location.
I do recall a flower shop around the corner....and I think they are still there two years ago when I came back.

I Don't recall that BUS incident, but probably have an old mag where "Kei Chui Uk" advertised, so I can find out the exact address for you tmr.

 

Did u live on/near Waterloo Road when in HK?

I was in that area during my primary school days. I lived right above 芝柏. And since I went to DBS not much traveling involved.
I'm trying to search for the photos that I took last time.

Cool. When I was in P5, I lived near that barber shop (YanYan) near Prince Edward Rd, not too far from where you were.

OK, here's the info as promised

 

 

but the address says 190 Prince Edward Road wor... which confirms that it was near Flower Market Road. Was there another one at the Zhi-Pak location that you mentioned?

fumoon

Found the photo....that place should be somewhere below on the left of the sign 55 waterloo road

That pic shows Waterloo Rd @ Wylie Rd, (opposite Wah-Yan college) not close to where you lived wor... (I thought Zhi-Pak was near the Baptist University on Waterloo Road?) So were there several shops?

fumoon

Yep...more than one 芝柏.
See the building on the left?....My home used to be there, I heard they torned it down years ago. Now they have this new building.

Oh, I see. Yes, there's a new building there and quite pricy.

I have another photo here.
If you know the area back in our kid's days, then you'll probably know why I'm pointing it out.

http://space.uwants.com/attachments/2007/07/24/1803027_200707241537341.jpg

That's a little bit further down on Waterloon rd. towards where you lived. 金邊的士 should be on the right side of the photo.

Oh, of course, and Pui Ching would be in the back, towards the left...and Homantin St on the right... the cars are headed towards my old home...

 

Hey, did you go to the "Upper One" often? (you'd know what I mean...)

I really did thought about that...since there's nothing on the second floor around that area.
Ha ha,.,,we go there nearly everyday after school and on Sat. mornings for breakfast. And everytime after that I'll usually ask them for change for 5 twenty cents coins.....for what?.......扭蛋......there's 2 machines at that spot which I circled out in that photo.


Wait......which 雅閣 are you talking about?.....the old one or the new one above 環球 ?

Oh, there were two? I'm talking about the one above 環球... anyway it seems our discussion is off topic now... maybe we should start a new thread on Upper One, haha. ANyway, need to run, later bros.

 

PS Sadly, FYI, 雅閣 went out of business a few years back. It's a Chinese restaurant upstairs now.
