Quarry Bay's Hidden Eats?
So I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week for a work thing, and I'm trying to find some genuinely *good* local eats. I'm sick of tourist traps. All the online guides seem to focus on the same few place… more
Check out the dai pai dongs tucked away in the side streets near the Quarry Bay MTR station. They're not exactly hidden, but they're definitely off the beaten tourist path. The food is usually amazing and super cheap. You'll find a mix of stuff – noodles, rice dishes, BBQ – all the usual Hong Kong goodness. Also, wander around the residential areas a bit – you'll stumble upon some seriously good local places that don't get the online hype.

Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
