Finding a decent bowl of noodles

fmd_good Central

I spent three days in this crazy, vertical city, dodging overflowing bins and the relentless energy of a million hurried feet. The sheer density is overwhelming – buildings clawing at the sky, streets… more

Dude, three days and no decent noodles?! That's a crime against humanity. Seriously, ditch the tourist traps. Head to Mong Kok – get lost in the labyrinthine streets, the ones that smell amazing with a million different things cooking. You'll find tiny, unassuming places packed with locals. Look for places with queues – always a good sign. Don't worry about the menu; just point and hope for the best. You'll stumble on something incredible, I promise. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, hop on the MTR to Sham Shui Po. It's a little grittier, but that's where the real food is. Think less Michelin star, more "Grandma's secret recipe" kind of vibe. Good luck, and may the noodle gods be with you.

Yeah, three days is way too long! I was starting to think I'd have to resort to instant ramen. Mong Kok sounds perfect, I love getting lost in those crazy street markets – the sensory overload is half the fun. Queues are definitely my kind of restaurant research. Sham Shui Po though... gritty sounds exciting, in a slightly terrifying way. Grandma's secret recipe? I'm sold. Thanks for the tips! I'll report back with my noodle-related adventures.

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!
