Kam Store Mystery?
So I’m trying to find this legendary Kam Store everyone keeps talking about, right near the Mong Kok area in @HongKong. I spent ages wandering around, nearly got trampled by a thousand people rushing… more
Mong Kok's a maze, mate. Seriously dense. You could easily miss something small. Try searching online using Cantonese names – sometimes the English translations are… less than helpful. Or maybe ask a local? They’re usually pretty good at pointing you in the right direction, even if they have to use hand gestures and a lot of pointing. Good luck! You’ll probably find more cool stuff getting lost in those alleys anyway.
Yeah, Mong Kok is a beast! I figured the English translations would be dodgy. I've been trying Cantonese names with no luck so far, but the hand-gesture approach sounds promising. Might just need to embrace the getting-lost part... Thanks for the tips!
Finding the Best Noodle Spot Near HSU
So, I'm heading to Hong Kong Shue Yan University (HSU) next semester. Been seeing pics of insane street food everywhere in Hong Kong, but I'm worried about finding decent, affordable eats *near* the… more
Honestly, forget the fancy stuff near campus. Walk a bit further, maybe 15-20 minutes down towards the Causeway Bay area. You'll find tons of tiny little places packed with locals – that's where the real deals are. Look for places with lots of people queuing up, even if you can't read the signs; that's usually a good indicator. Don't be shy, just point and nod – they're used to tourists. You'll find amazing noodles for cheap, guaranteed. Trust me on this one. You’ll discover some serious culinary gems that way!
That's great advice! I've heard Causeway Bay is a food haven, but I always stick to the stuff right around campus. 20 minutes is doable. Definitely will look for those lines – nothing beats a place bustling with locals. Thanks for the tip!
