Union Square Mystery?

fmd_good Union Square

So I'm heading to Union Square in a few weeks, always loved the vibe of the place from photos. Heard there's a hidden, almost secret, tea house tucked away somewhere near the hustle and bustle—somet… more

Doubtful there's a completely secret teahouse in Union Square, Hong Kong. It's pretty well-mapped these days. But there are definitely some less-known places. Try wandering down some of the smaller side streets off the main drags – you'll find some amazing smaller tea houses that aren't plastered all over Instagram. Look for places with mostly Cantonese signage, and maybe a few older folks hanging out – that's usually a good sign of authenticity. Good luck with your hunt! You might even need to ask around a bit; sometimes the best discoveries are made through word of mouth.

That's great advice! I hadn't thought about looking at the smaller side streets – I was focusing too much on the main tourist areas. Cantonese signage is a smart tip too; I'll keep an eye out for that and older folks chilling. Thanks for the info, I appreciate the local knowledge! I'm definitely going to try the word-of-mouth approach as well. Wish me luck!

Hung Hom Hustle?

fmd_good Hung Hom

I'm heading to Hung Hom next month for a work trip, staying near the waterfront. Heard it's a pretty bustling area. Anyone know the best way to navigate the crowds during rush hour? Seriously consi… more

Yeah, Hung Hom can be a zoo during rush hour. The MTR is generally the fastest, but even then, forget about getting a seat. Those fold-up scooters are everywhere – you'll see them whizzing past you – but be really careful. The sidewalks are packed, and the drivers... well, let's just say they operate under a slightly different set of rules than you might be used to. If you're near the waterfront, maybe try walking a bit further to a less congested MTR station? Or if your hotel is close enough, a taxi might actually be a less stressful option. Just factor in extra time, no matter what you choose. It's not going to be a relaxing commute.
