Read the following text and answer the quiz below.
[1] The expanded second passenger terminal at Hong Kong International Airport opened its doors to travellers last month. Travellers must still take an autonomous people mover to Terminal 1 for departures after checking in at Terminal 2. It offers 25 new shopping and dining options. Here is where to eat, drink and shop.
[2] The facility features a spacious food court with six restaurants operating as of May 27. They include TamJai SamGor Mixian, which serves rice noodles, and Milk Cafe, a cha chaan teng. Fast-food chains such as Jollibee and McDonald’s also have branches in the terminal, while those seeking Japanese cuisine can visit Ufufu Cafe and Yukimura. Drink options include Nap Tea, Cupping Room Coffee Roasters and Sang Roastery. Those craving something sweet can head to Joy Full House.
[3] Looking ahead, a “two-dish” rice shop is slated to open in September. These establishments have surged in popularity across Hong Kong. They allow patrons to select two pre-cooked main dishes accompanied by a generous serving of rice, with the low price a key draw.
[4] For gifts, consider Cookies Quartet, Good Point Food, Imperial Patisserie and Kee Wah Bakery. Cookies Quartet is especially popular with mainland Chinese tourists for its palmiers. Good Point Food is known for dried seafood and ready-to-eat products. Imperial Patisserie mainly features palmiers, cookies and mooncakes.
[5] Kee Wah Bakery is a top choice for Hong Kong-themed gifts. Packaging features the city’s trams and giant pandas. A convenience store and shops selling personal care items, toys and travel essentials can also be found in the terminal.
[6] Travellers can arrive via the Airport Express, which will open train doors on both sides to allow access to either terminal. Passengers can also reach the terminal via Citybus’ Cityflyer service routes.
[7] Those travelling by taxi or private car can be dropped off at the terminal. Motorists can drive to the six-storey Car Park 3, which offers about 1,000 parking spaces, including 81 charging stations.
[8] Passengers travelling with airlines that have moved to Terminal 2 must still board their flights in Terminal 1. But Steven Yiu Siu-chung, the Airport Authority’s executive director of airport operations, said they did not need to reserve extra transit time. It should take travellers at Terminal 2 about two to three minutes to reach the security area at the centre of the departure hall.
