Trends in Hong Kong
Lui Seng Chun Mystery?
So I'm planning a trip to @HongKong and stumbled upon this Lui Seng Chun place. Pictures look amazing, like a hidden courtyard, totally Instagrammable. But all the info online is super vague. My que… more
Went there last month. It's definitely pretty, the pictures don't lie. But yeah, it's touristy. Not overrun exactly, but there's a constant stream of people. The "old Hong Kong charm" is there, it's undeniably a beautiful building, but it's also very much a curated experience. Think less historical drama, more... carefully-staged Instagram set. You can get your tea and your photos, for sure, but don't expect a quiet, contemplative moment unless you get ridiculously lucky with timing. It's worth seeing, just manage your expectations.
PolyU Food Stalls?
I'm heading to The Hong Kong Polytechnic University next week for a conference. Heard the food court there is legendary. Seriously, everyone raves about it. But I'm a picky eater… what are the *actu… more
The food court's pretty big, so it depends what you're after. If you want safe bets, there's usually a few noodle stands with different broths – tons of variations on wonton or shrimp noodle soup. Those are generally pretty mild. Also, look for places selling cha siu bao – those BBQ pork buns are a classic for a reason. Avoid anything that looks particularly…brightly coloured. That's usually a clue it's going to be more adventurous flavor-wise. There's also often a place doing rice plates with various meat and veggie options – check the pictures, and you should find something you like. It's usually pretty crowded at lunchtime, so be prepared to queue a bit!
