Head to Mong Kok. It's crazy busy, yeah, but that's where you'll find the real deal. Skip the fancy places with the Insta-worthy presentations – look for smaller, family-run joints. The ones with long queues of actual locals are usually a good bet. Don't be afraid to venture down some side streets; that's where the gold is hidden.

Yeah, Sai Kung's a beast! Sharp Peak's a killer view, I agree. For less-traveled beaches, you'll have to put in some effort.

Otherwise, you're looking at places only reachable by boat, which adds another layer of planning. Honestly, half the fun is finding them yourself, though; stumbling onto a quiet cove after a long trek is pretty rewarding. Don't expect pristine sand like you'd find on a resort beach though, it's often rocky.
