Hong Kong or Tokyo?

I'm planning to go to Asia this summer but am stuck between the two cities. I am planning to stay for two weeks and want cultural as well as modern city life. I also want the food to be quite good. I have heard that Hong Kong is the capital of the world when it comes to food and that goes for Chinese and non-chinese.

The reason i want to go to Tokyo is because i feel it is more "city" like than Hong Kong but then again Tokyo is very expensive. Which do you recommend?

However Tokyo is the more impressive metropolis.

Strongly disagree.

HK would definitely be up there, in part again, due to the large international community. That probably puts it up there with London when it comes to choice, but the prices by comparison makes it a potentially sweeter deal.

I've been to both and Tokyo is more cultured, and ridiculously well ordered. Everything is neat and perfect. The people there behave much better too, they will always bow to you and when you go around shops they will not shout in your face trying to get your attention. It is also massive and much larger than Hong Kong.

I'm not sure eating international food in HK is cheaper than eating in London. In 'normal' restaurants - bistro/gastropub food - I paid £20 or £30 for a meal most of the time. The food was delicious - as good as anything I've had in London - but hardly cheap.

Another point of comparison is that Pizza Express in HK is easily over £20 for starter/pizza/drink.

Hong Kong is probably going to have more varied places to eat, with it having such a large international community, it should generally be a lot cheaper too.

As for a food capital, it depends on what you define by a food capital. If it's by say, 3-michelin starred restaurants, Tokyo has the rest of the world spanked. But if it's down to varied, different cuisine, HK would definitely be up there, in part again, due to the large international community. That probably puts it up there with London when it comes to choice, but the prices by comparison makes it a potentially sweeter deal. That said, there are plenty of Japanese places that do take food from around the world, refine it and give it a Japanese twist though, which can always make for interesting surprises and can often end up better (in some ways) than the original.

Hong Kong is still very much a city, so I'm kinda lost about the "feels more like a city" thing.

Hong Kong is easier for foreigners because it's english friendly. Tokyo is not as english friendly.
However Tokyo is the more impressive metropolis, although Hong Kong is quite advanced itself and has an unparalleled skyline. Tokyo is also a very short bullet train ride away from places like Kyoto which is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Hong Kong and China have nothing of the like.
