Irish Born Chinese

Hong Kong version of Yelp! would be nice

Anytime I go to Hong Kong, I wished I know where to go for food or something to drink or both. I recently found openrice.com which features reviews on restaurants, it started of in Chinese, but now has an English section. What I noticed that the English section is not the same as the Chinese section. How did I know, given that I don't know how to read Chinese so I ignore that section? I get the emails and they are always in Chinese even though I selected the option to update me in English.

So much for localisation, right?

Anyway, it would be great to have a more general site like Yelp! although I'm actually using Yelp! Ireland. I know I'm not the only one looking for Yelp! Hong Kong. And it would be handy as well to walk around and find places to eat, drink, shop and so on.

I've even submitted a request for Yelp! Hong Kong. I'm sure many tourists, ex-pats and overseas Chinese like myself either living or visiting Hong Kong would find this really handy. /rant
