More than just a simple toy shop, Zha Fei Zha is packed with gadgets and novelty gifts. This is the place for reasonably-priced home ware gadgets or gifts with some tomfoolery attached.

This veritable menagerie of stuffed animals goes beyond teddy bears and bunny rabbits, purveying a wealth of less hackneyed cuddly critters.
