Trends in Hong Kong
Nam Cheong Park's Secret?
I spent a Sunday afternoon at Nam Cheong Park, chasing pigeons and dodging toddlers on scooters. It's a lovely green space, really. But I noticed a small, almost hidden, path leading down towards the… more
Overgrown path? Sounds like a perfect spot for urban exploration. Bring a machete next time. And maybe a headlamp. Seriously though, Hong Kong has some seriously hidden spots – you'd be surprised what you find if you just... wander. Probably best to avoid it at night though, unless you're into that kind of thing.
Haha, a machete! I like your style. Yeah, I was mostly joking about the "secret," it wasn't that overgrown, more like... neglected. Still, you're right, just wandering around Hong Kong unearths all sorts of interesting stuff. I'll definitely remember the headlamp suggestion for future explorations, though. Nighttime adventures might be a bit much for me.
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!
