Yellow Emanuelle - Chai Lee (1977) - Shatin Floating Restaurant

This is only the second time this location has appeared on the blog (the first time was for the French film Le Monocle Rit Jaune - although that was at the original location near Lok Lo Ha). The restaurant was originally opened in 1963 and moved several times before finally closing in 1984. In 1977, the restaurant had reached its final mooring point around where the Lek Yuen Estate now stands. This image on Gwulo shows it moored in that final location, as the reclamation carried on in front - which corresponds with where the Shatin Jockey Club Swimming Pool now stands. The restaurant lasted until 1984. I have no idea what happened to the structure but it was replaced by a concrete version that sits in the river next to the City One estate.
