Silvercord

I like the food court on the basement floor. It offers a decent varieties of japanese, korean, Chinese, western and Chinese dessert. I always get the roasted duck set menu at this one food vendor. The set is about 42 hkg dollars.

Silvercord is one of my favorite shopping malls in Kowloon. When I was a high school student and working in the nearby Hard Rock Café (now an H&M), I used to frequent this place a lot. I still do today but not as much. Silvercord has 6 storeys of establishments but don’t be fooled — 2 of those storeys are located underground; the basement and the lower ground floor. Silvercord also serves as a shortcut to Harbour City as it has an interconnecting interior bridge similar to Landmark.
The majority of the basement floor consists of food republic, a decent food court that serves mostly Asian fare from Vietnamese to Japanese cuisine. In the middle of food republic, there are tea and smoothie kiosks. All the floors are equipped with restrooms as well as restrooms for the disabled.
Contemporary fashion boutiques line the lower ground floor while the ground floor houses optical and jewelry shops. The first and second floor is a mix of different shops but my favorites are Pacific Coffee and Crumpler. The third floor has awesome dining options ranging from casual American Ruby Tuesday’s to Taiwanese modern staple Din Tai Fung.
A lot of expatriates I know have not been to Silvercord even though it’s in such a prime location (Canton Road!). Compared to Harbour City, it can be seen as an afterthought but for me, Silvercord has its place. Whenever I’m in Tsim Sha Tsui, I make sure to drop by here because it is less crowded than Harbour City.
