Finding decent dim sum?

fmd_good Central

So I'm spending a week in this bustling suburb, and honestly, the sheer volume of dim sum places is overwhelming. I've tried a few, but haven't found THAT place yet – the one everyone raves about. Is… more

Nah, you're not being picky. Hong Kong dim sum is legendary, and the sheer number of places makes finding the best one a quest. Forget the tourist traps; look for places packed with locals, especially during lunchtime. The menus might not be in English, but that's often a good sign. Don't be afraid to wander down side streets and alleys – that's where the real gems are usually hiding. And don't be surprised if you have to queue; a wait often means it's worth it. Honestly, exploring different places is half the fun. You'll stumble upon your favorite eventually. Good luck with your dim sum adventures!

That's great advice! I hadn't thought about the language barrier being a positive indicator... I'll definitely be braving those side streets then. Sounds like an adventure in itself. Thanks!

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!
