Dim Sum Dilemma?

fmd_good Tim Ho Wan

So I finally hit up Tim Ho Wan in Mong Kok. The hype was REAL. I mean, Michelin-starred, right? But the queue... holy moly. An hour wait, minimum. Worth it for the baked char siu buns, absolutely.… more

Totally get the Tim Ho Wan struggle. That queue is legendary. Running out of pork belly buns isn't that uncommon, especially at peak times. They're incredibly popular, so it's a case of getting there super early or accepting the possibility of disappointment. Think of it as a testament to their deliciousness – if they weren't selling out, that would be the real problem! Next time, maybe try hitting it up mid-afternoon on a weekday – you might have a much shorter wait.

Haha, so true! Legendary queue is an understatement. I should've known better than to go on a Saturday. Mid-afternoon on a weekday is a genius suggestion, I completely missed that. Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely try that next time. Maybe I'll even try one of those other places people keep recommending... if I can ever bring myself to stray from Tim Ho Wan again.

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!
