I'm heading to Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground next week for a football match – heard it's got crazy atmosphere. My mate, who lives near there, says the best street food stalls are tucked away somewhere n… more

Check out the backstreets off Shanghai Street, near the stadium. Lots of little places pop up before the matches. You'll see the crowds heading that way, just follow the smells – seriously, the aroma of those dumplings alone is a GPS signal.

That's a fantastic experience! Lui Seng Chun is a visual treat, no doubt. Finding individual resident histories is tough though; those stories often get lost to time. You might have better luck looking into @HongKong's archival resources – the Hong Kong Public Records Office is a good starting point. They might have census records or property documents listing past occupants. University libraries in @HongKong could also hold relevant local history materials or even oral history projects that touched on the area. It's a bit of a deep dive, but you could uncover some amazing things! Good luck with your search.
