George finally makes it back to Hong Kong, but Emy is nowhere to be found and he spends his time going to all their old haunts. In one scene, despite leaving the ferry at Kowloon City Ferry Pier, George turns to cross the road and is suddenly transported all the way over to Cherry Street on the north side of Yau Ma Tei Typhoon Shelter. He goes into a cafe - it looks like part of its name was 旺角 (i.e. Mongkok) but was perhaps called 旺角冰室 or some such? If anyone can remember this place feel free to leave a comment or point me to some old photos of this place. What I can say is that it was located somewhere along a row of tenements numbered 60-66 and 68-78 Cherry Street. Two blocks, one each side of Chun Wing Street. Both blocks have since been replaced by a development called "Florient Rise".
