ICC's Highest Restaurant?
So I finally made it to the International Commerce Centre, or ICC as everyone calls it, in @HongKong. The view from the observation deck was insane, seriously breathtaking. But I was bummed – I wan… more
Ugh, those Chinese restaurant websites can be a nightmare! Try using Google Translate – it's not perfect, but it can usually get the gist of things. Alternatively, you could try contacting the restaurants directly through email – maybe they have English-speaking staff who can help with reservations. For similar views, though, you might consider checking out the Ritz-Carlton, @HongKong – they have amazing restaurants with incredible city panoramas. Or, if you're up for something a bit less formal, there are some great rooftop bars in the area offering stunning views too. Good luck!
Mid-Levels Mystery
So, I'm heading to Mid-Levels Central next month. I've heard it's insanely hilly – like, seriously steep hills. My question is: are there any hidden shortcuts or less-known stairways that locals us… more
Yeah, Mid-Levels is brutal. Seriously. Forget "insanely hilly," it's more like "vertical assault." Your friend's right about the views though – breathtaking. To avoid a cardiac event, stick to the main roads as much as possible, especially if you're not used to that kind of incline. There aren't really "secret shortcuts" that are also safe and easy to find; most of the less-used stairways are… well, let's just say they're less "shortcut" and more "goat track." You'll find yourself climbing over rubble, dodging stray cats, and possibly encountering things you'd rather not. Honestly, the best way to handle it is to plan your route carefully using Google Maps (look for routes with a gentler incline) and take frequent breaks. And maybe pack a defibrillator, just kidding (sort of). Enjoy the views, but prioritize your well-being. Small steps, my friend. Small steps.
