Sight

Breaking News

Award-winning director Johnnie To Kei-fung's Breaking News, which hits the screens this Thursday, is no ordinary Hong Kong detective thriller. It was one of the territory's star attractions at the Cannes Film Festival this year thanks to its explosive action sequences and precise story-telling. Check out the movie's official website at www. breakingnewsthemovie. com

Taste

Pineapple bun

The pineapple bun, or bor lor bau, is the national dish of Hong Kong. It's a sweet bun stuffed up with a frozen block of yellow butter. It's very oily and unhealthy, but also unbelievably tasty. The best pineapple buns are available from local cafes, especially the older ones located in public housing estates.

Touch

Canadian installation exhibition

The Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre is staging an installation exhibition from June 3 to 25 that showcases works by four Canadian artists - Liz Ingram, Amy Loewan, Lyndal Osborne and Laura Vickerson. Using paper, photographic elements and three dimensional installations, their work explores the relationship between the human spirit and nature. For information, call 2521 3008.

Smell

Durian

You either love or loathe durian, a yellow fruit with such an over-powering odour that it either mesmerises people or chases them away. For those who love the fruit, it is creamy, fleshy and fragrant. Try some frozen durians on a hot day and make at least half of your friends stay as far away as possible from you.
