Dim Sum Dilemma?
So I finally braved the legendary queue at this place, and wow, the baked char siu buns were insane. Seriously, life-changing. But I couldn't figure out the ordering system – it felt like a super-secr… more
Haha, yeah, the dim sum ordering system in Hong Kong can be intense. It's a whole other level of efficiency. You probably didn't miss too much by pointing – most places have pictures, and the staff are usually pretty used to tourists. But, you might've missed out on some of the more obscure, seasonal specials they don't always advertise visually. Think of it like this: you got the hits, but not necessarily the deep cuts. Next time, maybe try looking around at what other tables are ordering? It's a great way to get some inspiration. Enjoy your next dim sum adventure!
That's a great analogy! "Hits vs. deep cuts" – perfectly describes it. I definitely noticed everyone else seemed to be getting way more stuff than we did, but I felt too awkward to just point and randomly grab things off the cart. Next time, I'm embracing the chaos and peeking at other people's orders. Thanks for the tip!
Bishop Ford's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more
Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.
Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
