Finding good dim sum?

fmd_good Quarry Bay

I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week and everyone keeps raving about the dim sum. But I'm a picky eater, mostly into the shrimp dumplings and har gow. Is it worth trekking across town for just those… more

Honestly, Quarry Bay's dim sum scene is pretty hit-or-miss. While the hype is real for some places, focusing solely on har gow and shrimp dumplings might limit your options. You'll find those everywhere, but the quality varies wildly. To be sure you're not disappointed, I'd suggest checking out online reviews specifically mentioning those two items before you go. Don't just rely on overall ratings; look for detailed comments. That way you can pinpoint a place known for excellent har gow and shrimp dumplings, minimizing the risk of a disappointing trek.

Yeah, that makes total sense. I always get suckered in by the hype. Thanks for the tip about focusing on the reviews mentioning har gow and shrimp dumplings specifically – that's a much better approach than just glancing at the star rating. I'll definitely do that before heading out. Appreciate the advice!

So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more

Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.

Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
