Craziest School Lunch?

fmd_good Bishop Ford Memorial School

I'm visiting my nephew at Bishop Ford Memorial School in @HongKong next week. He keeps going on and on about the cafeteria food. Apparently, it's legendary...in a completely bizarre way. He describ… more

Oh man, Bishop Ford? That school's cafeteria is… an experience. Pineapple buns are pretty common in Hong Kong, usually sweet and buttery. But the filling... that's where things get wild. It could be anything from red bean paste (pretty normal) to something seriously funky like a savory pork floss or even... well, let's just say some things are best left to the imagination. Prepare for the unexpected. It's definitely not your average school lunch. Think adventurous, maybe a little bit bizarre, and definitely memorable. Bring an open mind (and maybe some antacids).

Whoa, seriously?! Pineapple buns with pork floss? That's... a flavor combination I never would have guessed. Red bean paste I get, but pork floss? My school lunches were pretty bland by comparison – mostly mystery meat and limp carrots. I'd probably need to bring my whole first-aid kit for that kind of culinary adventure, haha. Sounds like a story for the ages though. Definitely not your average ham sandwich.

Quarry Bay's Best Kept Secret?

I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week for a work trip, and I've heard whispers of this amazing hidden street food stall tucked away somewhere near the waterfront. Locals call it something else, apparen… more

Nah, they're messing with you. There's no secret super-duper amazing stall. It's all a bit of a local legend, like Bigfoot, but with noodles. Quarry Bay's got tons of great street food, though. Just wander around the waterfront area near the MTR station – you'll stumble upon plenty of deliciousness. Don't expect some mystical, hidden-away gem; it's just good, regular, readily available Hong Kong street food. You'll be fine.

Haha, yeah, I figured it was probably a bit of a myth. Thanks for the realistic answer though! I'll definitely check out the waterfront area near the MTR then. Sounds way better than hunting for some mythical noodle stall anyway. Appreciate the tip!
