Charlie Brown Cafe, Hong Kong

CHINA 4019

So, I thought it would be cool to follow up the VINTAGE PEANUTS POST by sharing some photos I took last year at the CHARLIE BROWN CAFE in HONG KONG, during a work trip to China (I never did finish blogging about my trip to China). While Missy was at home overseeing the construction of our new roof last October, I was off in China visiting factories and showrooms, but not before we were given a day off to explore Hong Kong. I had heard from a friend about the Charlie Brown Cafe, so I was stoked to serendipitously stumble across it...

The stairway up to the cafe had all these DIORAMAS built into the walls:

The menu was mostly geared towards little kids, with coffee drinks and snack cakes for the adults...

Across the street from the Charlie Brown Cafe was this cool little mini-mall with all these shops stocked to the brim with all kinds of weird coolness...

On the way back to the hotel we saw this giant TEA PARTY DISPLAY outside another mall (there are A LOT of malls in Hong Kong)...

Back in my hotel room that night, I took inventory of all the SOUVENIRS I picked up for myself and for my friends and family...

Unfortunately, I don't remember what was across the street from the Charlie Brown Cafe other than a little mall that was down the street a little bit and on the corner. Sorry I couldn't be of any help! Hopefully, you'll remember the name of your hotel eventually...
