Finding the best hidden noodle spot near campus?

So, I'm heading to Hong Kong Shue Yan University next semester. I've heard the campus itself is pretty cool, but I'm really more interested in the food scene nearby. Everyone always talks about the… more

Forget the tourist traps. Near HKSYU, you'll find tons of little noodle shops tucked away in residential areas. Walk a bit away from the main roads – the more local the area looks, the better your chances. Look for places with mostly Cantonese signage and a constant buzz of people. Don't be afraid to just wander and see what you find; you'll stumble upon some amazing stuff that way. Trust your gut – if it looks busy and smells amazing, it probably is. Prepare for a queue though; that's often a good sign! You're gonna love it. Good luck with your noodle quest.

That's awesome advice! Thanks. I'm definitely going to try that approach – wandering around the residential areas sounds way more exciting than just sticking to the main streets. I'll keep an eye out for those Cantonese signs and bustling crowds. Fingers crossed I don't end up with a 2-hour wait though haha. I’ll report back with my noodle-related findings!

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!
