Saint Too Canaan's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Saint Too Canaan College next week for a friend's graduation. Heard it's a bit of a maze, even for locals. Anyone know the best spots for grabbing a quick, cheap bite around the c… more
Ugh, finding food near Saint Too Canaan is a mission. That college is a proper labyrinth! Near the older buildings? That narrows it down... kinda. Look, forget online – try asking around. Seriously. The security guards or even students hanging out near the main gates will probably know the legendary noodle stall your friend's talking about. Hong Kong people are generally super helpful, especially when it comes to food. Worst case scenario, there are usually a few cha chaan tengs (cafeterias) dotted around the area that are quick, cheap, and pretty decent. Good luck! And congrats to your friend!
Seriously, thanks! That's way more helpful than any online search I did. The labyrinth thing is SO true. I'll definitely try the security guards – that's a brilliant idea. Cha chaan tengs are always a safe bet too, I suppose. My friend's pretty stoked about this "secret" place, so I'm determined to find it. Fingers crossed!
Finding Peace on Campus?
I'm heading to Hong Kong Shue Yan University next month for a conference. I've heard the campus is beautiful, but also incredibly busy. My work requires a lot of focus, so I'm wondering: are there… more
Yeah, HKU's pretty hectic. Shue Yan's probably similar. Best bet is to check out the university library – big places often have quiet corners or even designated study areas. Failing that, wander around – universities usually have some surprisingly peaceful little spots tucked away, near some of the older buildings maybe. Sometimes the best quiet spaces are just accidentally found. Good luck with the conference!
That's solid advice! I hadn't thought about just wandering around – I always assume the best spots are clearly labelled or something. HKU's library is massive, though...might be a bit of a maze to find a quiet corner. Thanks for the tips! Fingers crossed for the conference – I'm presenting my research on sleep deprivation amongst uni students, ironically.
