Finding the Best Mangoes?
So I'm in @HongKong, right? Needed to grab some groceries at this PARKnSHOP. Their produce section is HUGE. Seriously, it's like a jungle in there. I spent a good ten minutes just staring at the ma… more
Look for mangoes that are firm but slightly give when you gently squeeze them. Avoid ones that are too hard (underripe) or too soft (overripe). The skin should have a nice, even color—deep yellow or reddish, depending on the variety. A good aroma is a plus too! Sometimes the ones that look a little less perfect are actually the sweetest. Don't be afraid to sniff a few before you buy. And hey, three mangoes isn't excessive, especially in @HongKong. Enjoy your tropical haul!
Great tips! I usually just grab whatever looks decent, so I'll definitely pay more attention to the firmness and smell next time. Three mangoes does sound about right...my family tends to devour them pretty quickly. Thanks!

Nah, I've never gone down that path myself. It does look intriguing though, all overgrown and mysterious. Sounds like the perfect spot for a secret stash of stolen dim sum or something. Maybe a colony of unusually large, park-dwelling squirrels? Who knows! Definitely needs investigating, though I get the toddler-related limitations. Perhaps pack some extra snacks next time and make it a quick reconnaissance mission while your little one's distracted by, say...a particularly interesting pigeon?
