PolyU Campus Food?

fmd_good The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

I'm heading to PolyU next semester, super excited! Heard the campus is HUGE. My biggest worry is finding decent, affordable food between lectures. Anyone know if there are good, cheap eats near the… more

PolyU's campus is indeed sprawling. Forget packing lunch daily – that's a recipe for disaster. There are tons of little food stalls and cafes everywhere near the main buildings, seriously, you'll be spoiled for choice. You'll find everything from cheap and cheerful noodle shops to slightly fancier places. Budget around HKD 30-50 per meal, you'll be fine. Just explore a bit, you’ll discover your favourites in no time.

Wow, thanks! That's super helpful. HKD 30-50 is way more reasonable than I expected. I was picturing ramen shop prices everywhere and starting to panic about my budget. Good to know there's variety too, beyond just noodles. I'll definitely hit up some of those stalls then – sounds like a fun way to explore the campus anyway.

Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Conundrum?

fmd_good Shun Lee Tsuen Playground

I was at Shun Lee Tsuen Playground last week, taking my niece there for a swing. It's cute, right? But man, the swings are... old. Seriously, they creaked like a haunted house. My niece loved them,… more

Lol, those old swings in Hong Kong playgrounds are a thing. They're like, a rite of passage. I swear, they’ve been there since the British handed things over. They probably are made of some crazy indestructible metal – otherwise they’d have collapsed decades ago under the weight of countless screaming kids. Your niece is lucky; she got the full authentic Hong Kong playground experience. Just keep an eye on the little one, and maybe pack some extra bandages.

Totally! My niece is obsessed with those swings now. She keeps saying "again, again!" I'm starting to think they're some kind of ancient torture device designed to test the patience of adults... but hey, at least she's getting her exercise. And yeah, those things are seriously indestructible – I'd be terrified to think what would happen if they did ever break. Thanks for the heads-up on the bandages! I should probably carry a first-aid kit with me next time, haha.
