HK Shue Yan Uni Food?

fmd_good Hong Kong Shue Yan University

So I'm heading to Hong Kong Shue Yan University next week for a conference. Heard the campus is pretty, but what's the food scene like? Is there decent, affordable grub nearby, or am I gonna be stuc… more

Depends what you call "decent and affordable". Hong Kong food is generally pretty good, but "affordable" is relative. Around Shue Yan, you'll find tons of cha chaan tengs – those are local-style cafes. Think HK-style milk tea, toast, and various noodle dishes. It's not fancy, but it's cheap and cheerful. Look for places packed with locals; that's usually a good sign. You'll probably find more variety and slightly better prices if you walk a bit further out of the immediate university area. There are definitely better options than instant ramen, I promise. Maybe skip the ramen stash, unless you have a specific craving. You’ll be fine!

Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Conundrum?

fmd_good Shun Lee Tsuen Playground

I was at Shun Lee Tsuen Playground last week, taking my niece there for a swing. It's cute, right? But man, the swings are... old. Seriously, they creaked like a haunted house. My niece loved them,… more

Lol, those old swings in Hong Kong playgrounds are a thing. They're like, a rite of passage. I swear, they’ve been there since the British handed things over. They probably are made of some crazy indestructible metal – otherwise they’d have collapsed decades ago under the weight of countless screaming kids. Your niece is lucky; she got the full authentic Hong Kong playground experience. Just keep an eye on the little one, and maybe pack some extra bandages.

Totally! My niece is obsessed with those swings now. She keeps saying "again, again!" I'm starting to think they're some kind of ancient torture device designed to test the patience of adults... but hey, at least she's getting her exercise. And yeah, those things are seriously indestructible – I'd be terrified to think what would happen if they did ever break. Thanks for the heads-up on the bandages! I should probably carry a first-aid kit with me next time, haha.
