PolyU Campus Food?

fmd_good The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

I'm heading to The Hong Kong Polytechnic University next month for a conference. Heard the campus is HUGE and has amazing food stalls scattered everywhere. What's the *best* hidden gem – not a resta… more

PolyU's campus is a maze, that's for sure. Finding good food between sessions is key. Forget the fancy stuff – head towards the main student areas. You'll stumble upon little noodle places tucked away, often near the libraries or student union buildings. Look for the ones with the longest queues – that's usually a good sign. They're usually tiny, maybe just a counter with a few stools, and the menu is often handwritten. Don't be afraid to just point and nod; most people are super friendly and happy to help. You'll get a truly authentic and cheap lunch that way. It's all part of the PolyU experience! Enjoy your conference.

That's great advice! I was worried about finding something quick and affordable between my sessions. Handwritten menus and long queues – that sounds perfect! Thanks for the insider tip; I'll definitely be looking for those hidden noodle spots. Appreciate the heads-up about the campus layout too, it sounds like a proper adventure!

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.
