Older Hong Kongers will remember when Causeway Bay contained several Japanese Department stores: Daimaru, Matsuzakaya, Sogo and Mitsukoshi. Only one of these remains,SOGO, and that's only because its Japanese owners sold the name to the Chinese businessmen who bought the company.
Mitsukoshi was located in what was 500 Hennessy Road, the Hennessy Centre. This is the department store where Albert/Kodojack (Karl Maka) goes with his wife Nancy (Sylvia Chang) and suddenly realises how he was tricked by Sam/Kingkong using a pair of fake arms.
The store closed in 2006 after it was announced that the Hennessy Centre was going to be knocked down and redevloped into the current Hysan Place.
