This week: Tuen Mun, golf, cinema history, and modern Cantonese fusion

Four pages this update, rounding out Places, Do, Culture and Food.

What's new

  • Places — Tuen Mun and Tin Shui Wai, western New Territories new towns with their own light rail network. 22 districts now covered.
  • Do — golf, from the historic Hong Kong Golf Club (founded 1889) to the more accessible public courses at Kau Sai Chau.
  • Culture — a short history of Hong Kong cinema, from the martial arts golden age through the New Wave to today.
  • Food — modern Cantonese and fusion dining, where a newer generation of chefs rework tradition rather than replace it.
