Union Square Food Stalls
So I'm heading to Union Square next week, buzzing to finally check out the famous food stalls everyone raves about. Heard it's a total sensory overload – amazing smells, bright lights, the whole sheb… more
Yeah, Union Square's food scene is wild. It's definitely a sensory assault, but don't worry, there's more than just fiery dishes. Lots of places offer milder options – think egg tarts, various noodle soups (you can usually ask for less spice), and even some surprisingly good dim sum that isn't overly spicy. You'll find plenty to satisfy a picky eater. Just be prepared to navigate a crowd! It's super busy, especially in the evenings.
Quarry Bay's Hidden History?
So I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week, always loved the area's vibe, but I'm curious about something. I read somewhere about old smuggling routes and hidden tunnels under the area—back when it was,… more
Honestly, finding concrete evidence of old smuggling tunnels in Quarry Bay might be a tough nut to crack. Most of that history's probably buried, literally. The area's been developed so much. Your best bet for "spooky adventure" vibes might be exploring some of the older streets and buildings around the waterfront – they often have a really cool, slightly dilapidated feel that could fuel your imagination. Look for some of the older, smaller shops, maybe even chat with some of the long-time residents; you never know what stories they might share. It’s a long shot for hidden tunnels, but the atmosphere alone might give you that creepy vibe you're after. Good luck!
That's a really good point about the development. I hadn't considered how much that would've erased any physical evidence. I guess the atmospheric approach is probably more realistic, then. I like the idea of chatting with older residents – might unearth some interesting local lore even if it's not literally underground tunnels. Thanks for the practical advice!
