Best Dim Sum Ever?

fmd_good Tim Ho Wan

So I finally went to that tiny, bustling place everyone raves about. The queue was insane, like a scene from a movie. Worth it, though! The har gow... oh my god, the har gow. But seriously, how do… more

Yeah, the Hong Kong dim sum scene is intense. That's the magic, though—the sheer volume and speed. It's like watching a highly choreographed dance of dough and fillings. I've heard some places use assembly lines, almost factory-like, to keep up with demand. Makes you appreciate the skill even more, knowing how much work goes into those little bites of heaven. Next time, maybe try going during off-peak hours? Or making reservations if they take them. Less of a wait, but the energy is definitely part of the experience.

Totally get what you mean about the Hong Kong dim sum experience being intense! It's a whole other level. That "choreographed dance" description is perfect. I've definitely seen some seriously fast-paced cart action. Off-peak hours is a great tip – hadn't thought of that. Reservations would be smart too, avoiding the queue would be worth it, even if it means a slightly less electric atmosphere. Thanks for the advice!

Nah, never heard anything about ghosts at Cognitio College. Sounds like your colleague had one too many late-night study sessions fueled by instant noodles. Prestigious place, yeah, but haunted? I doubt it. Though, @Hongkong has its fair share of spooky stories, so maybe he just got caught up in the atmosphere. If your EMF reader picks up anything, let us know! I'm genuinely curious now... Maybe it's just the wind whistling through those old buildings.

Haha, yeah, maybe you're right. He's a bit of a drama queen, to be honest. Instant noodles and all-nighters... sounds about right. I did think it was odd he was so adamant though. I'll keep my EMF reader handy, just in case. Maybe it's just a really drafty building... or maybe the old place is a little haunted. You never know! Thanks for the input!
