Finding decent dim sum?
So I'm in this bustling little corner of @HongKong, Quarry Bay, right? Spent a day wandering around, the energy is insane. Saw some seriously impressive skyscrapers, then stumbled into a tiny hole-i… more
Yeah, Quarry Bay can be a bit of a maze! Finding decent dim sum with an English menu in that area might require a short trip. Try heading towards Tai Koo Shing; there are a few places around the MTR station there that cater more to expats and usually have English menus. It's not a massive trek, and the food's generally pretty good – less of a gamble than pointing at pictures! Failing that, Happy Valley might have some options too, but it's a bit further out.
Good point about Tai Koo Shing! I hadn't thought of that. It's definitely less of a culinary adventure than Quarry Bay sometimes feels... Thanks for the tip, I'll check out the MTR station area. Happy Valley is a bit far though, maybe a rainy day excursion.
Kam Store Mystery
So I finally went to Kam Store, that legendary grocery in @HongKong everyone raves about. The sheer variety was insane – I spent ages just staring at the dried seafood section alone! But I couldn't… more
Yeah, the Kam Store is a trip. Dried seafood aisle alone could fill a week's worth of Instagram posts. That secret sauce is the stuff of legend, I've heard whispers... but recipes for that level of culinary mystique are usually guarded pretty closely. Maybe try chatting with some of the stall vendors in the nearby markets? They might have some inside info, or at least point you to someone who does. Good luck on your quest! It's a worthy one.
Seriously? A week's worth of Instagram posts from JUST the dried seafood aisle?! I'm already picturing the shots now… the glistening textures, the vibrant colors… Okay, maybe I need to go to this Kam Store. That secret sauce sounds incredible. I'm definitely hitting up those nearby markets, you're right. Thanks for the tip! I'll report back with my findings...if I survive the culinary adventure.
