I went to the crocheting place. I’m 14 and I’ve recently taken an interest to learn to crochet, so my mom signed me up for a class there. The first teacher taught me to make the bag, she was super nice and she was even teaching another child. But then she went on her lunch break so another teacher came. She mostly put her attention towards the child and didn’t really help me. In the end she called another teacher to help me, and she kept finding ways to talk about my age which was really embarrassing. I just came here to learn to crochet and this ageist woman was just ruining my desire to learn. As an introvert, this was a really bad experience but in the end i did get a cool bag. i would recommend young people to go here and slightly older people to buy materials online and watch youtube tutorials.

Terrible attitude at shop 120. Went there to take a look at a skirt and the middle aged woman there pushing me to buy it not a minute I arrived. I asked if there was a place to try it on and she scoffed and said (in cantonese of course) "it's only 99hkd what do you expect?" Rude, but I did like the skirt so I wanted to take a picture of myself in the mirror to ask what my mother thought of it. She proceeded to shout "DELETE DELETE" at me and I told her I hadn't even taken the picture. She then gave me a dirty look when I put it down to leave. She also proceeded to cuss me out about how I'm a terrible person for not wanting to buy from her as I was leaving. I turned to try and explain that I was just trying to show my mother but she refused to say anything else. It's perfectly understandable that some shops don't allow pictures, that is ok. However the attitude in which I was met with was horrendous enough that it scared another lady away. Is it so hard to just say "no pictures please"? The rest of the shops at laforet were alright, bar shop 120.

It's not a big mall. They dont have a lot of brand name. But they have a lot of alternative fashion store (local store with high quality I would say). Many organic product stores here. Not really a place for gathering as they do not have a big seating space but perfect to get some organic stuffs (supplimentary food, hair product, organic skin care product, etc.)and shopping some local lady's fashion.

This is a great shopping place if you're after fashion goods. There's a lot choice and a large variety on shops. But if you're intending to actually buy something instead of window shopping, do come at around 3 in the afternoon than at early mornings seeing as a majority of shops won't be opened until past lunch time. There's no guide map or info counter but it is a relatively small place; only 2 floors with an escalator between them. From time to time, there are lucky draws or goods redemption if you spend over a certain amount in electronic transaction (especially around the holidays) so it's worth a look.
