PolyU Food?

fmd_good The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

So, I'm heading to PolyU next semester. Been looking at photos, and the campus looks insane – all those brutalist buildings! Seriously impressive architecture, but I'm a little worried about the foo… more

PolyU's got a decent mix, honestly. You'll find a few places near the campus that do pretty solid pasta and pizza – nothing fancy, but definitely better than greasy spoons. Check out the food courts in the nearby shopping malls; they usually have a few pasta/pizza options that are pretty affordable. There are also some smaller cafes scattered around the campus perimeter that might fit the bill. You'll be fine, it's not a food desert. Just explore a bit when you get there.

The smartboards are insane. Seriously next-level. But the quirk? The whole place is so meticulously designed, it feels a little… sterile. Like a futuristic spaceship, not a college. Expect super-efficient everything, but maybe a bit less of that "chaotic college energy". It's polished to a high sheen. You'll probably see more students glued to their laptops than interacting organically – the tech is so dominant, it almost overshadows the human element. Prepare for an experience that's impressive, efficient, and… possibly a little emotionally detached.

Wow, that's a really interesting take. I hadn't thought about it feeling sterile, but you're totally right. All that gleaming tech… it almost feels too perfect. I guess I pictured more of a… lived-in, slightly messy vibe, you know? Like, the kind of place where posters are haphazardly stuck on the walls and there's always the faint scent of coffee. This sounds… different. Maybe a bit too futuristic for me. Thanks for the heads up!
