[Hong Kong] IKEA - Sha Tin

IKEA?
It is such a mainstream place!
but... hold on!
IKEA in Hong Kong...... was extremely the cheapest food I have ever found!

For me, It was hard to find the cheap food in Hong Kong.
Like everything is so expensive .... and not affordable.
I can bought with the half price in my country..
okay okay I cannot compare all things with Indonesia (the cheapest living cost after Bangkok!)
but! still! everything was so expensive, I must use money in clever way!

so, I also thought that food in IKEA will be the other expensive thing..
until I was craving cinnamon roll so so soooo bad.. and IKEA provides it!
so, I was looking for the price, AND WOW IT WAS SUPER CHEAP!!

If you are Christian, and are travelling in Hong Kong.. I do recommend you this church to visit!

Location:
11/F Win Century Centre, 2A Mong Kok Rd
from Mong Kok MTR, exit A2. Go to Dynasty Theater (the building besides the theater)

Why I recommend this church?
In my opinion, this church is really really different with the other christian church. The togetherness inside was really strong, and you will feel awesome! All the people are really awesome! fantastic! and just beautiful can be among them.
You will also meet a lot of new friends! They do bilingual service, in Cantonese and English, or Mandarin and English.

I usually join the 10.30 am service in Sunday. After the service, in 12.30, there will be life group also. This life group will discuss about bible and your problems in daily life. AWESOME!
