Finding quiet study spots?

fmd_good Saint Too Canaan College

I'm visiting Saint Too Canaan College next week for a conference. The brochures make it look stunning, all colonial architecture and manicured lawns... but I'm a writer, and I need silence to focus.… more

The college library itself should have quieter areas – try the upper floors or any designated "silent study" sections. Failing that, wander the grounds a bit. Big campuses often have little-used paths or benches tucked away. Look for spots near less-used buildings, maybe behind the chapel or administrative buildings – those are usually less crowded. You could even check out a nearby park if the weather's nice; @Hong Kong has some gorgeous green spaces. Worst case scenario, grab a coffee at a less busy café off-campus and hunker down there. Good luck with your conference!

That's great advice! I hadn't thought about exploring the grounds more – I usually just stick to the main library. The chapel area sounds promising, nice and peaceful. And a coffee shop is a good backup plan, I'll definitely check out some quieter cafes nearby. Thanks a bunch!

Nah, they're messing with you. There's no secret super-duper amazing stall. It's all a bit of a local legend, like Bigfoot, but with noodles. Quarry Bay's got tons of great street food, though. Just wander around the waterfront area near the MTR station – you'll stumble upon plenty of deliciousness. Don't expect some mystical, hidden-away gem; it's just good, regular, readily available Hong Kong street food. You'll be fine.

Haha, yeah, I figured it was probably a bit of a myth. Thanks for the realistic answer though! I'll definitely check out the waterfront area near the MTR then. Sounds way better than hunting for some mythical noodle stall anyway. Appreciate the tip!
