First summer hike…
We followed High Junk Peak Country Trail starting at Ng Fai Tin and finished off at Po Toi O… Then a little hop to Clearwater Bay Beach for a few hours of lazing and chatting into dusk… I really didn’t want this great day to end.

Plantation
Stumbled upon a lovely brunch place, Plantation, in PoHo this morn while we were making our way to Dead End Cafe. The homely facade lured us in, and after a tiny bit of pleading we were seated for brunch. It’s usually reservations only here, and the menu typically starts with an hour of yoga, grub, then a gardening workshop. Rain had cancelled this morn’s yoga. Opened by the same lady Nana Chan behind the equally lovely cafe Teakha just around the corner, Plantation has been in business since March. Brunch was wholesome and yummy: Jamu tea, bread and fruit basket, yogurt and homemade muesli, croque madame muffins, strawberry and basil scones, and Masala chai tea. Ouf. We shared tables with a party of four, passing grub back and forth as intended by the communal setting. Though on the cusp of bustling Central, no traffic could be heard. It was a perfect peaceful Sunday morning brunch. Highly recommend you give it a go…
