Thanks
This is turning off topic. Give the "Hong Kong" forum a visit, there's plenty of ideas there.

It all depends how you want to allocate your time. Just some light shopping and taste of local food? Or do you wish to squeeze in some 'attractions' too?

Take the Airport Express into town to either "Hong Kong" or "Kowloon" station where you could transfer to the local subway train bringing you to endless options.
Since you have 8 hours to spare, and it's your first time in HK, I wouldn't recommend spending it at Tung Chung's outlet mall though. Head out to the city and explore!
