New Mall The ONE Opens

Haven’t they got enough malls already over in Tsim Sha Tsui? This is not a property column but we just want to bring your attention to The ONE, the sparkling new shopping mall complex on Nathan Road. New restaurants and bars are popping up there already—Harlan’s has closed their space in IFC mall, crossed the harbor to move onto the 19th floor at The ONE, which is now open, as has a bar called Cocky a floor below (we are already sneering at the name). Also just opened is a new sushi place called Kushi One (pictured) on the fifth floor.

80± Post-80s in the eyes of Post-80s

“The term ‘Post-80s’ (‘baat sap hau’ in Cantonese) has recently became mainstream and used as a popular noun in the local media. In the digital age, almost every post-80s kid owns a camera, and taking portraits is no longer only reserved for special occasions, nor is it the privilege of a professional photographer”— or so says Mary Lee, a post-80s art librarian.
