I would come over at night, take the star ferry, to Kowloon for the light show and to walk Tsim Sha Tsui. The area is bustling. You can also take the aerial tram http://www.np360.com.hk/html/eng/front/index.asp that you pass on the way from the airport and ride to the top of the mountain where there is a cultural village and a giant Budda.

Traditional food, other than one I mentioned for Cantonese, I can't really help. Sorry.

And yes you need a Visa to get into Shenzhen. You maybe able to work out a 7 day with the embassy, but I am not familiar with this and have not done it.
Again, thanks for your insight. It is appreciated.
