![]() You'll find a similar range of food and drink venues that includes the likes of Starbucks and McDonalds, local favourites Honeymoon Dessert and Teawood, mixed with lesser known cafes, coffee shops and top floor bar. However, there are just as many local and lesser known retailers lining the mall's upper floors. Some brand names you will recognise like Marks & Spencer, H&M and the cosmetic brands that line the Level 1 Beauty Avenue. Where many malls in Hong Kong focus on high-end and luxury brand name retailers, LP tends to stick to the Mongkok vibe and culture, fillings its floors with boutique and youthful shops. Others find it quirky and fun, a bit like the retail shops you will find at Langham Place. Some find this confusing and obnoxious compared to traditional shopping mall floor layouts. There you discover a peculiar corkscrew shaped floor layout which winds up and down in a circular manner. The first thing that sticks out when visiting is the 83-metre escalator that takes you to the upper floors. LP tends to be most popular with the younger crowd. Located on Portland Street with direct access to the Mong Kong MTR Station, this is a 15 floor (+ 2 basement levels) mall with 17,000 sq metres of shopping space and over 200 shops and eateries. Langham Place (LP) is the largest shopping mall in Mongkok. Otherwise see pictures submitted to assist in finding the Sbakery pop up. It is across the foyer next to exiting doors. Look for the Dan Ryan restaurant if helpful. Note: This pop up at Harbour City is right at the entrance/exit above the escalators. Oh my, this is good but do be ready to share as the slices are too large for one person to finish in a single sitting. Even better in my opinion is the Banoffee Slice, which is a layered cheesecake with bananas. The original cheesecake is a nice balance of sweetness and sour. The slices are a bit pricey (HK$88) each but they are huge portions, thick and heavy, think Junior's in NYC when it comes to volume and texture with beautifully thick and sweet graham cracker crust. ![]() They have been just great on both occasions. We have tried their slices from this pop-up as well as the new flagship shop recently opened in Tai Ping Shan in Sheung Wan recently. They are open from 1.30pm to 8.30pm daily or until they sell out of their thick, creamy and delicious NYC style cheesecake slices. Sbakery by Mama Soo is a local bakery that has a pop up near the 元 southern entrance to the Ocean Terminal section of the Harbour City Shopping Mall.
