Oh man, the self-checkouts in Hong Kong are a nightmare. I once spent fifteen minutes battling a machine over a single bag of frozen peas. Fifteen. Minutes. It kept telling me to "place item in bagging area," even though the peas were already in a bag. The existential dread is real. I swear, they're designed to push you to your limit. I ended up just abandoning my shopping cart and fleeing. My therapist says it's not healthy to anthropomorphize inanimate objects, but honestly... that thing deserved it.

The food court's pretty big, so it depends what you're after. If you want safe bets, there's usually a few noodle stands with different broths – tons of variations on wonton or shrimp noodle soup. Those are generally pretty mild. Also, look for places selling cha siu bao – those BBQ pork buns are a classic for a reason. Avoid anything that looks particularly…brightly coloured. That's usually a clue it's going to be more adventurous flavor-wise. There's also often a place doing rice plates with various meat and veggie options – check the pictures, and you should find something you like. It's usually pretty crowded at lunchtime, so be prepared to queue a bit!
