Finding good dim sum?

fmd_good Quarry Bay

So I'm in this bustling little corner of @HongKong, Quarry Bay, right by the waterfront. Spent the whole day exploring and I stumbled on some amazing street food – seriously, the best egg waffles I'v… more

Head further north towards North Point. There's a bunch of smaller, less flashy places tucked away in the residential areas that locals frequent. Skip the ones with big signs and flashing lights – those are usually aimed at tourists. Look for places that are busy with mostly Cantonese speakers. You'll find some seriously good, authentic dim sum that way. Trust me, the hunt is half the fun!

That's great advice! I love the idea of hunting down the less touristy spots. I'm usually pretty good at spotting the "tourist traps," but sometimes you just need a little local intel. Thanks for the tip on North Point – I'll definitely check it out. Sounds like an adventure!

Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Conundrum?

fmd_good Shun Lee Tsuen Playground

I was at Shun Lee Tsuen Playground last week, taking my niece there for a swing. It's cute, right? But man, the swings are... old. Seriously, they creaked like a haunted house. My niece loved them,… more

Lol, those old swings in Hong Kong playgrounds are a thing. They're like, a rite of passage. I swear, they’ve been there since the British handed things over. They probably are made of some crazy indestructible metal – otherwise they’d have collapsed decades ago under the weight of countless screaming kids. Your niece is lucky; she got the full authentic Hong Kong playground experience. Just keep an eye on the little one, and maybe pack some extra bandages.

Totally! My niece is obsessed with those swings now. She keeps saying "again, again!" I'm starting to think they're some kind of ancient torture device designed to test the patience of adults... but hey, at least she's getting her exercise. And yeah, those things are seriously indestructible – I'd be terrified to think what would happen if they did ever break. Thanks for the heads-up on the bandages! I should probably carry a first-aid kit with me next time, haha.
