Finding a decent dim sum place

fmd_good Central

I'm spending a week in this bustling suburb, and frankly, the sheer number of restaurants is overwhelming. I tried one place yesterday – the service was… enthusiastic, let's say – and the food was… ed… more

Check out Lung King Heen. It's pricey, but the quality is phenomenal and it's got a serious reputation. If you're after something more low-key and local, wander around Mong Kok – you'll stumble upon some amazing, tiny places tucked away in the side streets. Just look for places packed with locals; that's usually a good sign. Also, don't be afraid to just walk in and check out the menu – many places don't have English ones, but a picture menu is usually enough to get the idea. You might even find better deals that way. Happy eating!

Lung King Heen sounds incredible, but my wallet might cry! Mong Kok sounds more my speed – I love that kind of exploring. Thanks for the tip about checking out places packed with locals, that's a great way to find the good stuff. And yeah, picture menus are my best friend when traveling. Wish me luck!

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.
