Quarry Bay's hidden food scene?

fmd_good Quarry Bay

I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week for a conference – the work stuff's sorted, but I'm obsessed with finding amazing, authentic local eats. Everyone talks about the big chains, but I wanna know whe… more

Check out the little dai pai dongs tucked away near the residential areas around Quarry Bay MTR station. They're often not super obvious, but the locals know where to find them. Look for places with lots of Cantonese chatter and limited English menus – that's usually a good sign. You'll probably find some killer noodles or roast meat there. Also, wander around the backstreets near Taikoo Place – there are some small, family-run eateries that aren't exactly hidden, but they don't get the tourist crowds. And don't be afraid to just follow your nose! The best food finds are often the ones you stumble upon unexpectedly. Happy eating!

That's awesome, thanks! Following your nose is exactly the kind of advice I needed. I'm not a fan of the usual tourist traps, so those tucked-away dai pai dongs sound perfect. Cantonese chatter is a great tip – I'll definitely be looking for that! I'm really excited to explore beyond Taikoo Place too, I usually just stick to the main areas. Thanks again for the detailed suggestions!

Hung Hom Ferry Mystery

Go early in the morning or late at night. Seriously, the difference is night and day. Rush hour on the Star Ferry is... an experience. Not a pleasant one. If you want the view without the scrum, avoid peak times. Plus, you'll get better photos with less people in them. Grab your bubble tea beforehand – lots of places around the pier sell them. Enjoy the ride!
