In The Know with Paul Lee

I was born and raised in HK and went to college in the US, then worked for Silicon Valley startups before coming back home in 2007. Today I run Aumeo Audio, a HK startup that invented the world’s first tailored audio technology that reshapes audio based on each person’s individual hearing – kind of like glasses for your ears.

I LOOOOVE local junk foods. Spicy fish ball is my favorite, and I always stop at 通達食店 (‘Tung Tat Food Shop’) on Pitt Street for the spicy fish balls (right next to Tribute!). Now you are getting me hungry.

Well as an entrepreneur I don’t go out much. I do have fond memories dining with my wife at recently 208 Duecento Otto. As an added benefit, it’s walking distance to PMQ, the “SoHo-like” artsy place with interesting events all the time.

The beach! Stanley if you are into hustling and bustling or Shek O if you enjoy more of a pristine beach. Stanley is cool because you can also hike there through the Tai Tam Country Park.

Depends on what you like! I don’t shop much except for audio and other gadgets. I’d recommend walking around Mong Kok or go to One Duddell Street for high-end audio gear shops. Honestly I just window-shop but even that is interesting in and of itself!

Also check out Temple Street, walking distance from Tribute. Not so much a shopping experience as it is a cultural experience.

Clockenflap!

<shameless-plug>I would say get an Aumeo device! It’s not on-sale till December and it’s already half sold. We meant to launch it globally but we may now only have enough to sell in Hong Kong!</shameless-plug>

We as a family help a local housing estate’s elderly center every month to distribute rice and other foods to elderlies living on their own. I don’t know if it is suitable for foreigners because they only speak Cantonese, but it’s a great thing to do and hopefully it helps shape our kids’ personalities.
