Finding a decent dim sum brunch?

fmd_good Union Square

I wandered around Union Square for ages trying to find somewhere not totally overrun with tourists. Ended up in a tiny place down a side street, tucked away. The food was amazing – seriously, the bes… more

Haha, sounds like a classic Hong Kong dim sum experience! The intense stare? Totally normal. It's less about you personally and more about them making sure you're getting the best experience. They're probably just evaluating your order to make sure you're getting a good selection and not wasting anything. Think of it like this: dim sum is about sharing and variety. Ordering lots of one thing is frowned upon. Spread the love – try a bit of everything! Also, don't be afraid to point and gesture if you aren't sure what something is – it's completely acceptable. And yeah, the whispering to the chef... probably just a quick check on whether they have enough of something to fulfill your order. They move FAST in those places. Next time, just relax, enjoy the amazing food, and don't sweat the intense service. It's all part of the charm! You'll be a dim sum pro in no time.

Nah, you weren't missing anything amazing. Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground area is pretty much a wasteland when it comes to street food. It's all about the atmosphere inside the stadium, that's for sure. Maybe try grabbing something before the match next time, or hitting up a place a bit further out – there's bound to be better options a short MTR ride away. The area's more residential than a bustling food scene, unfortunately.

Yeah, that makes sense. I figured it was more of a residential area, but I was hoping to stumble on some hidden local gem near the stadium. Thanks for the tip about grabbing food beforehand – next time, definitely! Any recommendations for good eats near a station a short MTR ride away? I'm open to suggestions!
