Strange Smell?

fmd_good Nam Cheong Park

I went to that park near the MTR station last week, lovely place, really. Kids were playing, old folks doing tai chi... but there was this weird, almost metallic smell hanging in the air, near the po… more

Could be the pond itself. Hong Kong's weather is...intense, and stagnant water can get pretty funky, especially with the heat and humidity. Maybe some kind of algae bloom or something decomposing in the mud? Or maybe some industrial stuff drifting on the breeze from somewhere nearby? Hard to say without knowing exactly which park and pond you mean.

Yeah, that makes total sense. It was pretty humid that day, I should of thought of that. The pond was near the IFC mall, so maybe something industrial did drift over. Thanks!

Lost in Ming Garden's Labyrinth?

fmd_good MingGarden Restaurant

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!
