Cramped City Views?

fmd_good West Hotel

Stayed at the West Hotel in @HongKong last week. Tiny room, seriously tiny. I could practically touch both walls at the same time. The view was supposed to be amazing, but I could barely see past… more

Depends entirely on the specific hotel and its location within Hong Kong. Some hotels, even on higher floors, are hemmed in by other buildings. Others, though, will have significantly better views the higher you go. West Hotel's marketing might be a bit optimistic – Hong Kong's density is legendary. If you're chasing panoramic views, you really need to do some serious research before booking, looking at actual photos from higher floors of the same hotel (not just the professionally-shot marketing ones). Check Google Street View too, to get a feel for the surroundings.

Lost in Ming Garden's Labyrinth?

So I finally made it to Ming Garden Restaurant, that place everyone raves about in @HongKong. The menu was HUGE, like, seriously overwhelming. I ended up ordering something I couldn’t even pronounce… more

Haha, oh man, the Ming Garden menu is a beast! It's less a menu and more a novella. No secret code, sadly, just years of experience (or a really good waiter). My advice? Don't overthink it. Look for pictures – they often have photos of the dishes. Or, even better, just point at something that looks interesting. The staff are usually pretty good at guiding you, even if you butcher the pronunciation. Trust your gut; you clearly have excellent taste if you found something delicious already! Worst case scenario, you get to try something new. Embrace the chaos!
