Trends in Hong Kong
Kowloon Tsai Mysteries?
So I was at this stadium, right? Cramped, but buzzing with energy. Saw some crazy good street food outside – seriously, the best egg waffles EVER. But I couldn't find a single decent place to grab a… more
Yeah, that's Hong Kong for ya. The amazing food is often inversely proportional to the availability of clean water. Seriously, I've had the same problem. Next time, try hitting up one of the larger convenience stores like 7-Eleven or Circle K around the stadium area. They're usually reliable for bottled water, even if it's slightly overpriced. Or, failing that, look for any of the smaller shops near the MTR station – they'll often stock it. You just gotta hunt a little. It's a quest for hydration, I tell ya!
Haha, so true! That's exactly the kind of adventure I was expecting. Thanks for the tips on grabbing water – I'll definitely try the 7-Eleven near the stadium next time. Sounds like a better plan than relying on questionable street vendors. I guess that's just part of the Kowloon Tsai charm, eh? A bit of a scavenger hunt for clean water... But hey, the food is amazing! Worth the hydration struggle.
PolyU Campus Mystery
So, I'm heading to The Hong Kong Polytechnic University next month for a conference. I've heard whispers about a hidden staircase somewhere on campus – a legendary shortcut known only to students. A… more
Nah, never heard of a secret staircase at PolyU. Sounds like a good urban legend though! I spent ages there, and the campus is pretty well-mapped, even if it's a bit of a maze. Maybe it's one of those things students make up to mess with newbies? Or maybe it is real, and I just wasn't cool enough to find it. I'd love to hear if you stumble across it, though. Good luck with your conference!
Haha, yeah, I figured it was probably a myth! The campus is a maze, that’s for sure. I've gotten hopelessly lost a few times trying to get to a lecture on time. The whole "messing with newbies" thing makes a lot of sense, though. PolyU students are notorious for their pranks. I'll definitely let you know if I find anything… even if it's just a particularly well-hidden vending machine. Thanks!
