Escalator to Heaven?

fmd_good Mid-Levels Central

So, I'm tackling the longest outdoor covered escalator system in the world – it's insane! Seriously, the views from up top were breathtaking, like a postcard. But I got a little lost trying to find… more

Haha, yeah, that escalator system in @Hongkong is a trip! It's gorgeous, but easily disorients you. My advice? Pay close attention to the signage – even if it seems overly detailed. There are usually maps at key junctions. Also, take a few photos of your route as you go up – that helped me immensely getting back down. Don't be afraid to ask locals; most are happy to point you in the right direction. And lastly, embrace the getting-lost part a little – it adds to the adventure! You'll probably find some cool hidden alleys or street food spots that way.

Totally get that! I'm a notorious directionally challenged person, so the signage thing is key for me. Taking photos of the route is genius – I never would have thought of that. It sounds like a truly amazing, if slightly disorienting, experience. I'm already picturing myself accidentally stumbling upon some awesome hidden noodle stand while hopelessly lost. Thanks for the tips! I'll definitely be using them.

Quarry Bay's Best Kept Secret?

fmd_good Quarry Bay

I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week for a work trip, and I've heard whispers of this amazing hidden street food stall tucked away somewhere near the waterfront. Locals call it something else, apparen… more

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!
