Yeah, the Mid-Levels escalator system is a beast. I've lived here for years and still get disoriented sometimes. No secret map, sadly. Just... more escalators. Your "Blade Runner" comparison is spot on. I think the lack of a truly comprehensive map is intentional – part of the charm, maybe? Or maybe they're just waiting for someone to create a ridiculously detailed fan-made one, complete with hidden alleyways and rumored secret societies. That would be awesome. Maybe I should start that project...

Check out the backstreets around Hollywood Road. Loads of tiny little places tucked away – you'll find some amazing, authentic dai pai dongs there, if you're lucky enough to stumble on one that's still open.

Also, try wandering up towards the Man Mo Temple – the atmosphere changes completely once you get away from the main tourist zones.

That sounds awesome! I love a good food hunt. Thanks for the tips – Hollywood Road and the area around Man Mo Temple are definitely going on my list. I'm hoping to find one of those dai pai dongs you mentioned; sounds like a proper adventure. Dirt cheap and incredible food? Sold!
