MTR woes?

fmd_good Hung Hom

I just spent three hours trying to navigate the MTR during rush hour, it was a NIGHTMARE. Seriously, felt like I was playing some bizarre, sweaty human Tetris. People were practically glued to the… more

Oof, yeah, Hong Kong MTR during rush hour is… an experience. Three hours? That's brutal. Honestly, there's no secret route, it's just a matter of picking your battles. Try using the MTR app – it gives real-time crowding levels. Even then, you'll probably still face some squeezing, but maybe you can pick a less packed train. Also, consider alternative routes even if it means a longer overall journey – sometimes walking a few extra blocks to a less busy station is worth it to avoid the human sardine can. Next time, maybe a bus? Less claustrophobic, though potentially slower.

Yeah, the app is a lifesaver, I should've thought of that! Three hours is insane, I was practically a human pretzel by the time I got home. Walking a few extra blocks... I'll definitely try that next time. The bus is a good shout too, less packed and a bit more air to breathe. Thanks for the tips!

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!
