As a domestic helper here in HK! I really enjoy watching your videos. It rekindle my love for HONG KONG

[@SamandVictor]

Wow, thank you !!

[@eupsychics8167]

the shoot for the yumcha place is INSANE the cinematography 👩‍🍳💋

[@unikreations2258]

OMG. That Ralph Lauren packaging with the cycle and umbrella is just awesome. So cute! I wish I can have that!

[@SamandVictor]

It's so good! 🤯

[@ZuriAfrica]

Not the old man almost falling at the back of the garden shop🙂 omg.. The lanterns look so cool. I genuinely want to visit Hong Kong 🇭🇰 you guys share so much which makes the place really attractive.

[@hikingphil]

Love my Sunday evenings watching your uploads. I always Shazam the music choices, then add to my playlists. Cheers!

[@SamandVictor]

Wohoooo! Glad to be part of that routine ❤

[@sandychan480]

That lantern lane is incredible and such a treat for photographers. Happy Moon Festival!

[@SamandVictor]

It really is 🎉 the symmetry, the colours and best part it’s indoors with ac 😂

[@sandychan480]

And those classic bunnies plus gold fish lanterns and the more contemporary strawberry ones are just great! Couldn’t tell at all it was all indoors. 👍👍

[@alejandrabckr]

your videos are *chef’s kiss* so amazing and entertaining. makes me so nostalgic for the time i lived in hong kong many years ago. it’s truly such a beautiful and special city 💛

[@SamandVictor]

Glad you like them! 🙌🏻💕

[@chloezee123]

Like everyone else I’m here for the esthetic videos and commentary but watching your video really made me feel so much better after a rather crummy day. Good to know you guys are safe during the typhoon 😍

[@lulubelle0bresil]

New crush detected: the Old Fung Tea House! And what a bounty of gorgeous locations! You two have a wonderful eye for urban landscape and city life and I feel privileged to be able to see HK though your eyes. Thank you!

[@elyjane8316]

Love your soundtrack, from one jazz afficiando to another

[@izwong1043]

I love all the vlogs, especially this episode, the lantern, old style tea house, omg brings me so much joy to watch it and hope i have the chance to visit those places one day soon.

[@ronaldalexboquil8356]

Calming vlog. Stay safe after the typhoon

[@vicklet6253]

Washing the utensils in tea is so iconic Hong Kong. The mooncake from Ralph Lauren is amazing. Such thought was put into it. I doubt these special mooncakes could be found here in the states.

[@SamandVictor]

I totally agree! Until you accidentally burn yourself from the hot water 😅

[@ometofu]

Really appreciate the quality of your Hong Kong videos

[@SamandVictor]

Glad you like them!

[@MirVida]

I’m so happy to have found your channel. I’m visiting HK for the first time starting the 27th and now have a lovely list of places to visit thanks to you two.

[@kikihuang9690]

I love your recent vlogs!!! Really liked the few snap shots on the streets around 4:00. Hope you show more of your stills in the vlogs.

[@AmbientWalking]

Happy to experience a calm journey with you. I really appreciate your channel! Thank you so much!

[@jacquelineamom9517]

Love camper’s good. Their Quarry bay shop is renowned for its curry rice for ages. Thanks for giving us more ideas for great food and coffee shops apart from the main stream.☺️

[@johnwang7259]

Gonna try the curry rice🤤🤤

[@KittyPistachio]

Going to HK in October with my family and we need to go to Yuen Long for my parents!! So perfect that you guys went and recommend the dim sum place, definitely will try to check it out!

I love your videos! Is incredible that artistic vision and photography!!! Great experience!!!

[@leonieparsons]

That was a fantastic episode. I never knew Ralph's Coffee was Ralph Lauren!! Amazing. Bar Leone was interesting - I must go there when I am next in Hong Kong seeing it is almost my name. I loved the first shot of you walking up past what used to be The Pawn - I love that big pawn sign. The whole video was terrific.

[@SamandVictor]

Where is everyone watching this vlog from? Happy early mid-autumn festival 🎉🏮

Hey guys, me and my wife Jane used to frequent Yuen Long in the late 70’s. It was a single main street, and a famous restaurant called Benninas, memories. Love your vlogs 👍 Mark+Jane in the UK

Really enjoyed this vlog! Not sure if it was the traditional lanterns from a local business at the beginning and then ending with some modern moon cakes but, it makes me want to go to Hong Kong again!

[@SamandVictor]

[@Rose-yd7bn]

[@TheAseanPrince]

[@KarenMarielle]

Can't wait to go to Hong Kong this winter!

[@ExpatNatt]

We will be in HK for mid autumn festival this year, any recommendations on seasonal things we must do/visit? ❤

[@mskaiching]

HK Tourism Board should thank you for helping them boost tourism 😂. Watching your video makes me want to visit again!

[@daffyduck7328]

Greetings from Manila just started watching your channel yesterday for the 1st time the Okinawa video l and now I’m binge watching all currently watching your HK Lantern video up next is Macau my wife and I have been to many of the same countries I especially love the vintage store stuff I like how u have passion for ice cream desserts and coffee (non Starbucks) HK is great too I appreciate how you show there are more to these places than Tokyo Disney and USJ the Hyats are nice we will give them a shot next time how often do you post a video your content is great and we just became a new subscriber too. Cheers

[@josephleung6854]

I like and enjoy your camera work. Choice of music is very good. I wish I lived the same life style as yours. Keep up the good work. I bet you two are CBC, am I right? Keep up the good work

[@anneperera8738]

The lantern lane looks so pretty, and I am super keen to check it out when I am in transit in HK next week. Can you please let me know approximately how long it will take me to get to the lantern shop from the airport by train? Stay safe, cool and hydrated.

[@OlaBelinda]

Ur making me wanna visit HK again!! Hahaha eyeing on those goldfish lanterns! Wanna get one to take home so pretty 🥹😍

[@SamandVictor]

Are there any cool shops in Macau for lanterns?

[@OlaBelinda]

Not as cool and only few varieties to choose from. I remember the last time (talking about 10 years ago haha) I got the paper rabbit, I had to run around places to find it.😅

[@kikihuang9690]

also, good job on the latte art Victor,no more onions!

[@nasamanithorne2600]

You two make the best videos! I am missing mooncakes now, I have to go to Chinatown in London now. Sam, where is your white crossbody bag from and what is the exercise machine you use for the Pilates body called please? I like the idea of sitting down and exercising

[@SamandVictor]

The bag is from Korea and the exercise is called Reformer Pilates

[@katrinagapuz5086]

Love seeing how the photo turns out in between the videos. ❤ Which camera were you using for photo vs. vlogging?

[@SamandVictor]

We use the Fuji and iPhone for vlogging and most of the photos featured here are Fuji

[@ewnyMetroExpress]

Beautiful

[@suranpun]

I’ve been living in Yuen Long my whole life. I had no idea about the lantern shops inside Tai Kiu Market. 😂😂

[@SamandVictor]

Oh what you can go every day then! You should check it out tmr- should be less crowded haha

[@wawigomez]

I love the color and the life of your videos. I also love HK. How is the general atmosphere post Covid. It is truly hard to get details here in the US even in NY

[@staceyyeung8720]

Whoa whoa whoa. Where are the tin boxed moon cakes? Where is my mother going to store her knick knacks if I gift her one of those adorable Ralph’s box set. Anyone coming to San Francisco for moon cakes will be extremely disappointed after watching Sam’s unboxing. The mooncakes here have been in the same tin box for decades.

[@Kkarnteera]

cant wait to visit Hong konggg! How’s the weather like in November?

[@hanna_on_youtube3004]

Going to Hongkong in October, are the red taxi lights still available in one of the stores? They are so iconic 😍

[@mafaldasa88]

Love your videos and aesthetic! Also, the way you capture HK vibe, its colors and hectic lifestyle, diversity, you truly capture its essence :). Bonus points for the music taste, exquisite! I find myself always 'shazaming' the songs you select, would love to have some Spotify playlists from you guys! Big hug from a loyal fan here in Lisbon, Portugal :) hope to meet you guys there someday!

[@ebboy5]

Wow…. that coffee looks really weak! I prefer a good cup of strong coffee pour over method. Have you guys heard of Peet’s coffee from Berkeley, CA? Alfred Peet actually taught the founders of Starbucks. I highly recommend the SULAWESI-KALOSI that has under tones of chocolate! Hope you guys are safe from the recent flooding!

[@SamandVictor]

Not yet! But we heard of this brand while we were in the US a while ago!

[@KahnJi]

Stay safe ❤❤❤❤

[@kobedaily5351]

Hey S&V love your video💛 #5.43 subtitle incorrect : Tai Kiu Market at Yuen Long, not Sham Shui Po.

[@SamandVictor]

Yep it’s written in the description box!

[@mayandsharon]

Really love your vlog ! btw， the lattern shop is in Yuen Long or shamshuipo？seems one shot you put sham shui po address for the Tai Kiu market. But it is ok, I think it is in Yuen Long.

[@SamandVictor]

Oops sorry it’s Yuen long!!

[@kc5416]

The lantern shop is not in Shamshuipo Tai nam street, it should be Tai Kiu Market at Yuen Long The movie is professional level, keep on

[@SamandVictor]

Yes it’s marked in the description box ✨

[@asiabrokersclub]

Well presented, excellent works!

[@wailamwailam]

Where can I find Yuen Long Dim Sum music? It’s nice 👍🏻

[@dianatandarahardjo4936]

Is hong kong still flooded or has it been cleared off?

[@firstfirlpz2483]

Love your video🤍, I write down many places on my plan to HK next month, Thank you so much! However I would like to ask about lantern spot, do they open all the year? I really want to goo🥺

[@SamandVictor]

No just the couple weeks before midautumn

[@Shaunashares]

[@micahprats3661]

[@FernandaGomes-ho7vu]
