SOGO Causeway Bay

SOGO is a major shopping mall in Causeway Bay. You can literally find everything your home will ever need from furniture to electricals, to crockery and clothing etc. Prices can range from the ultra expensive to the ultra bargains, and almost any event is an excuse to be on sale. The only thing that can be annoying is the endless other people who are also on the lookout for bargains. There are always just too many people looking for that incredible bargain.

One thing that is missing from this review is of course the food section which is located in the basement - 2 levels below ground. This is definitely an awe inspiring place to shop for food, or some sort of an exotic liquid, or even pills; everything you can think of, which is rare or exotic, that has enormous perceived value and has to be eaten or drunk is all here! You must take it all in slowly and intentionally ENJOY, because this section involves most of your five senses, so be prepared to sit down and refresh yourselves several times if needed at the nearby coffee shops, have a relaxing tour, even have some lunch, and then come back again for a second or even third viewing and tasting.

The cakes and bakery are also inspirational, but you can only buy a limited quantity at a time no matter how well off you maybe, the appearance and taste are of course bound to have you return another day. Just the bakery called DONQ , I believe situated at the corner, with the most customer queing at virtually any time of the day, got me returning several times a week! Can you believe some people will queue for half an hour just to buy their plainest white loaf. Fights might even break out if someone accuses the other for not queing!
