Finding Old Photos?

So, I'm visiting my old primary school in @HongKong next week – St. Joseph's. It's been, like, twenty years! I was wondering if they still have that crazy old photo album in the library... the one w… more

Worth a shot emailing the school's alumni office or even the librarian directly. They might be able to confirm if the album is still around and if viewing it would be possible. Twenty years is a long time, so there's no guarantee, but it's definitely worth a try before you go all the way there. Fingers crossed for those hideous sweaters!

That's a great suggestion! I hadn't thought of contacting the alumni office or the librarian – I was planning on just showing up, haha. Twenty years is a long time indeed...those sweaters are legendary. Thanks for the tip, I'll reach out to them this week.

Mingle in Ming Garden?

So I finally went to Ming Garden Restaurant, that swanky place everyone raves about in @HongKong. The dim sum was incredible, seriously next level. But the service...oof. I ordered the mango pudding… more

Yeah, the food at Ming Garden is amazing, I totally agree. But the service? A complete lottery. Sometimes it's fine, other times... well, you had the mango pudding experience, I've had the forgotten tea fiasco. I think they're just overwhelmed, especially during peak hours. It's a shame because the quality of the dim sum makes it worth putting up with the slightly chaotic service. Maybe try going at an off-peak time?

Totally get what you mean. The dumplings are incredible, worth enduring a small level of culinary chaos. Off-peak sounds like a plan. Maybe a Tuesday afternoon dim sum binge is in order... 🤔
