港燦香港’大’發現

只係冇返香港年幾嘅時間,已經有幾多嘅轉變.例如

I have not been in HK for only a year more there are many changes.  For example

-我至愛嘅Simpsons同SpongeBob喺香港嘅人氣度大增. 居然屈臣士同百佳有Simpsons嘢賣. 精品店有好多SpongeBob嘢,可能日本興啦.

My favorite Simpsons and SpongeBob are more popular.  You can find Simpsons' merchandises in Watsons and Park n Shop.  Also many merchandises of SpongeBob in trendy shops.  Maybe it is popular in Japan.

-講開日本,原來日版合味道出咗兩款’新’嘢(香港日式超市有售). 一款係唔用熱水,直接’jum’凍水放入微波爐叮.另一款係環保裝,隻杯洗番再用.可惜嗰間超市冇補充裝賣. (我會開篇blog講合味道)

Talking about Japan, I have found that there are two new products from Cup Noodles (available in HK Japanese supermarkets).  One you don't need to pour hot water.  You just put cold water and then put it to the microwave oven. Another one is an eco pack.  You can clean the cup for next time.  However the refill has not been available in that supermarket. (I'll write another blog about Cup Noodles)

-扭蛋e+好先進,用IC card 或八達通. 開頭都唔知點嘟.

Capsule toy vending machines are so advance now.  You can pay by an IC card or Octopus.  At first I didn't how to pay.

-八達通匙扣好吸引我.但係我見人用又唔係咁好. 嘟嗰時唔知抽鎖匙碌咗喺手袋邊個位,最後都係要拎抽鎖匙出黎.

I liked the keyholder with Octopus.  But it might not be too good.  I saw that a lady didn't know where the Octopus keyholder was in her handbag.  At the end, she needed to take out the whole bundle of keys.

-之前喺香港配過鎖匙, 唔使十蚊條.今次拎維也納屋企啲匙黎配,佢話要25蚊條.咁貴?佢話我呢啲係歐洲匙,所以貴啲.原來佢睇得出架. 25蚊條其實已經平, 呢度要成10euro一條.

I have had my keys duplicated in HK once.  It was less than $10 for one.  This time I brought mine from Vienna.  The locksmith said it costed $25 each.  So expensive! Then he told me that mine were from Europe.  That's why it was more expensive.  Oh! He could tell just by looking at the keys.  In fact $25 is cheap.  If you make one here in Vienna, it costs 10 euro.

-細銀碼簽卡唔使簽名喇.(其實日本好耐好耐之前已經係咁)

No need to sign when you pay small amount by credit card.  (This has been in Japan for a long long time)

-喺KFC見到好似叫visa wave嘅繳費系統. 有冇人試過呀?

I have seen in KFC that there is a payment system, visa wave (right?).  Has anybody tried that?

-喺巴黎等轉機見到好多港人都拎住部net book上網. 真係咁普及?

When I waited for my transit flight in Paris, I saw that many HK people went online with their net books.  Is it really so common in HK?
