Even with the advent of the Influenza A(H1N1) a lot of people are still travelling. Here is my food trip in one of my favorite places to eat at in the planet. HONG KONG!!!!
Located at the basement level of Miramar Shopping Center at Tsim Sha Tsui. Nathan Road.. in front of the Kowloon Park.

thanks for sharing this. we were able to try Todai in their branch in Honolulu, Hawaii and i would have to agree that it was one helluva buffet! the table was just flooded with all those food, it was so crazy! we weren’t even able to try half of the choices… we loved the lobsters…amazing buffet… thumbs up!

It’s a great review but the post’s letter are like reading with bifocal lenses for those w/ 20/20 vision. Perhaps you can fix this or repost to a better font layout.
