Sea Food

Happy sea creatures in blissful ignorance of their destinies as food. On the side of E Kou Xian (web) (lettering, top right) and the adjacent shop Hao Pin Wei (on the sailboat). Also in the street are Lee Foods and the Same Happy café. There is a QEII 70th jubilee mural on the side of the defunct Wai Kee restaurant.

Apsley Street in Donegall Pass, on the site of an old 36th Division board that went back at least to 1999.
