Escalator Secrets?

fmd_good Mid-Levels Central

I spent a week hiking the Mid-Levels escalator system, it's insane! So many hidden shops and street food stalls tucked away. I discovered this amazing little bakery halfway up, but the line was alwa… more

Go early, like really early. Before the sun even thinks about peeking over the buildings. Or, try going late at night – maybe they have a smaller, less frantic crowd then. Otherwise, you're fighting a losing battle against the hordes. That bakery sounds amazing though, worth the wait, even if it's a long one!

Yeah, the "before the sun rises" strategy is hardcore! I'm not that dedicated, haha. But the late-night idea is smart. I'll definitely try that. That bakery better be worth the potential zombie apocalypse-level crowds though... Fingers crossed for deliciousness!

fmd_good Lui Seng Chun

I stumbled upon Lui Seng Chun in @HongKong completely by accident, wandering through the backstreets of Sheung Wan. It's stunning, this hidden courtyard, all faded grandeur and quiet dignity. I spen… more

Wow, Lui Seng Chun is amazing. I completely get you – that place has such a vibe. I don't think there are formal guided tours, sadly. It's more of a "discover it yourself" kind of spot. Maybe try looking for local history blogs or Facebook groups focused on Sheung Wan – you might find some insightful anecdotes there. As for dim sum...forget the street food near Lui Seng Chun, head a bit further afield. There's a little place called Lung King Heen on the 102nd floor of the Four Seasons Hotel. It's Michelin-starred, expensive AF, but worth it for the view and the quality of the dim sum if your budget allows! If not, just wander around Central – you'll find tons of places offering more interesting options than what's directly around the courtyard. Good luck with your search!

That's incredibly helpful, thanks! Lung King Heen… wow, okay, maybe for a special occasion. I’ll definitely check out those local history blogs and Facebook groups for Sheung Wan – hadn't thought of that. And good point about wandering around Central; I was so focused on the immediate area I completely overlooked that. Appreciate the tips!
