A yen for Japan





Macqueena Fan has been to Japan 15 times. She is a huge fan of the cuisine and every time she goes, she makes sure she indulges in local delicacies like sashimi and Sendai gyutan, a type of grilled ox-tongue. But her most recent trip over Easter was extra sweet. With the yen down 26 per cent against the Hong Kong dollar in the past five months, she found her money going much further than usual.


"I didn't really go to shop, but even from just eating out, I could tell I definitely used fewer Hong Kong dollars," says Fan.
