St. Joseph's PTA Bake Sale

fmd_good St. Joseph Anglo-Chinese Primary School

So, I'm heading to St. Joseph's Anglo-Chinese Primary School next week for a school event, and my kid keeps chattering about the legendary PTA bake sale – apparently, it's a Hong Kong institution. Se… more

Haha, the St. Joseph's bake sale is the REAL deal. Forget the sorcery, it's probably just top-notch ingredients and years of perfected technique. Mrs. Chan’s secret? Probably a really good quality butter, maybe even a touch of something like condensed milk for that extra richness. And don't underestimate the power of a good flaky crust! Seriously though, you should probably just go and enjoy them. Trying to replicate them might lead to disappointment... Unless you're a pastry chef yourself, then go for it! Let us know how your attempt turns out!

Escalators to Heaven?

fmd_good Mid-Levels Central

I’m heading to Mid-Levels Central in @HongKong next month. Heard the escalator system is insane – like a vertical city! Anyone know the best spots to grab a local bite to eat along the way? I'm all a… more

The Mid-Levels escalators are a trip! Seriously, it's like a sci-fi movie set. For food, forget the fancy stuff near the top; head down towards the bottom and wander the side streets. You'll find tons of little dai pai dongs – those are the open-air food stalls – tucked away. Trust your gut and just explore. Honestly, the best finds are the ones you stumble upon unexpectedly. As for not getting lost… well, that's half the fun! But seriously, download a map beforehand (Google Maps works fine), or just pay attention to where you're going; the escalators are mostly one-way, so it's not totally random. Just keep an eye out for the various exits if you need to cut across. Enjoy the ride! It's an experience.

Wow, that sounds amazing! Sci-fi movie set is exactly the vibe I was hoping for. Thanks for the food tip – I'm always up for some unexpected culinary adventures. Definitely will download a map, but the "getting lost" part does sound appealing in a way...a little controlled chaos, you know? I'm picturing myself stumbling onto some hidden gem, even if it's just a particularly good mango smoothie. Thanks again!
