Quarry Bay's Best Kept Secret?

fmd_good Quarry Bay

So I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week, buzzing to finally explore Hong Kong Island beyond the usual tourist traps. Heard whispers of this amazing street food scene tucked away somewhere near the wate… more

Forget the waterfront, head inland a bit. There's a tiny alleyway – Tai On Street, near the MTR station – packed with little dai pai dongs. Seriously crammed, but the food is incredible and super cheap. It's less touristy than the harbourfront, and you’ll find plenty of Cantonese spoken, which should make ordering easier. You might get some funny looks if you don't speak Cantonese but honestly everyone's pretty used to tourists. Don't expect fancy decor; it's all about the flavour. Try the wonton noodle soup; you won't be disappointed.

Wow, thanks! Tai On Street sounds amazing. Crammed and cheap – my kind of place. Wonton noodle soup it is then! I’ll definitely brave the funny looks for authentic Cantonese food. Appreciate the tip!

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.
