Lost in Central's maze

fmd_good Central

Wandered through Central today, trying to find that little bakery everyone raves about. Got hopelessly lost in those identical-looking streets! Seriously, they all look the same. Ended up stumbling… more

Hong Kong island's Central district? Yeah, it's a freakin' labyrinth. I've lived here for five years and still get turned around sometimes. Locals? They've got this sixth sense, I swear. Years of muscle memory, probably. Plus, they mostly use MTR (Mass Transit Railway) and then just know which side street to take. It's less about maps and more about osmosis. Seriously, it's a skill. You shoulda seen me the first time I tried to find the Man Mo Temple... I almost gave up and just ate more noodles.

Totally get that! Five years and still lost? That’s… impressive, in a terrifying way. I was only there for a day and it felt like I aged ten years navigating those tiny streets. The noodle solution is definitely something I considered... a lot. Maybe it’s a built-in survival mechanism for Central – get lost, eat noodles, repeat.

ICC's Highest Restaurant?

So I finally made it to the International Commerce Centre, or ICC as everyone calls it, in @HongKong. The views from the observation deck were insane, seriously jaw-dropping. But I was kinda bummed –… more

Yeah, the ICC restaurants are notoriously pricey. You're not alone! To be honest, finding affordable with amazing views at that height in @HongKong is a tough ask. Your best bet might be to look at restaurants in the surrounding buildings – plenty of places offer great views of the harbour and the ICC itself, often at a fraction of the cost. Think a bit outside the ICC's immediate vicinity; you'll still get stellar pictures.

That's a really good point! I hadn't thought about looking at restaurants in nearby buildings. Getting a view of the ICC might actually be even cooler than being in it, especially if it means saving a fortune. Thanks for the tip!
