香港站到站：利東…南島地鐵線最後第二站！第 1 部分：咖啡店 (scroll down for English)
哎……真是繁忙的一週啊！從新年開始，我（媽媽）就非常忙碌，忙著冬季的流感爆發潮。除此之外，一位同事上週去度假了，我為她當了幾天替工，現在這週又輪到我隨時待命到晚上九點……所以我都需要輕鬆一下了！
利東站共設 兩個出口。 一號位於通往利東村的山上，另一號則位於鴨脷洲。大部分景點都在鴨脷洲。
咖啡店
鴨脷洲有很多咖啡店！
AP Coffee：我在一日遊中遇到了一位沒想到住在附近的熟人以及一位居於區外的前同事（在我之前的文章中提到過），證明這家咖啡館相當有名！如果您喜歡酪梨吐司/全套英式早餐，那麼這家咖啡館就是您的最佳選擇。這裡還是一間兒童友善的餐廳。 小蕃薯出生後，爸爸和我在那裡約會了一次，其中包括在他的 MCHC 預約之前與 小蕃薯 一起吃早餐，他就睡在我們旁邊的嬰兒車裡。我記得那天早上下著傾盆大雨，店主非常友善體貼，還開玩笑說我想把嬰兒車轉向我的時候眼睛就離不開小蕃薯！
Bonza! By waffling beans：這是我們和孩子們一起出去時最喜歡的餐廳，因為這裡適合孩子。附高腳椅和兒童餐具。從那裡所有的狗來看，餐廳也是寵物友善的（無論是工作日還是週末！）。狗狗可能會去鴨脷洲公園的寵物公園（就在兒童遊樂場旁邊……小狗和孩子，一模一樣！）它提供華夫餅和多種非咖啡飲料。這也是我讀博士期間最喜歡的WFC（Work From Café）地方，因為那裡有沙發座位、英文雜誌和落地窗。
Mad Three：這裡是由一群年輕的潮人經營。他們的熱巧克力是有史以來最好味的。它採用優質的台灣黑巧克力製成，因此與其他地方通常推薦的濃鬱熱巧克力不同。在夏天，我非常喜歡他們的冷巧克力……在其他地方找不到類似的東西。他們還有雞蛋薄餅（松露薄餅特別好吃），我喜歡他們的炸雞。

Hong Kong Stop by Stop: Lei Tung (Southern district MTR stop) Part 1- Coffee shops
Phew.. what a week! Ever since new year, I (Mama) have been busy, busy, busy with the winter surge. Added to that, a colleague went on holiday last week & I covered for her & now I am on-call this week… So more light relief needed!
Lei Tung station has 2 stops. 1 on a hill leading to Lei Tung estate and another in Ap Lei Chau. Most of the attractions are in Ap Lei Chau.
Coffee shops
Ap Lei Chau has an abundance of coffee shops!
AP coffee: I’ve bumped into an acquaintance who I didn’t realize lived in the neighbourhood & an out-of-neighbourhood ex-colleague on a day trip (mentioned in my previous article), proving this café to be quite famous! If you are an avocado toast/ full English breakfast fan, then this is the café for you. It also has a kids-friendly attitude. Baba and I had our 1st date there, after X was born, which consisted of having breakfast with X sleeping in the stroller beside us, before his MCHC appointment. It was raining cats and dogs that morning and the owner was very friendly and considerate, joking that I couldn’t take my eyes off X when I wanted to turn the stroller to face me!
Bonza! By waffling beans: This is our favourite when out with the kids, on account of their kid-friendliness. It has high chairs and kids cutlery. It is also pet-friendly, judging by all the dogs there (both on weekdays and weekends!). The dogs probably go to the pet park in Ap Lei Chau park (right next to the kids playgrounds… puppies and kids, same same!) It serves waffles and has a wide selection of non-coffee drinks. This was also my favourite for WFC (Work From Café) during my PhD days, because they had sofa seats, English magazines and French windows.
Mad Three: This is run by a bunch of young hipsters. Their hot chocolate is the best ever. It’s made from good-quality Taiwanese dark chocolate and is therefore unlike the rich hot chocolates usually recommended in other places. On summer days, I absolutely love their cold chocolate… Nothing close to that can be found anywhere else. They also have egg crepes (the truffle one is particularly yummy) and I like their fried chicken.
Other things to do in Southern district:
-Hong Kong Stop by Stop: South Horizons.. Last stop on the South Island MTR line!
-Hong Kong Stop by Stop: Lei Tung… 2nd last stop on the South Island MTR
