Also, don't be afraid to wander a bit off the main drags. Sometimes, the best places are tucked away on quieter side streets. And finally, trust your gut – if a place feels too touristy or the menu is all in English with pictures, you might wanna keep looking. Good luck! You'll find something amazing.

Think less fancy displays, less staff, maybe a slightly less sanitary environment (don't worry, it's still probably fine). It's the Hong Kong way – get it done, get it cheap.
