ICC's Highest View?

Nah, I doubt there's some secret, awesome viewpoint inside the ICC that's off-limits to the public. Security's probably pretty tight in a place like that. Your feeling of it being "sterile" is probably just the nature of a super-modern, high-end building designed for tourists. Think about it – it's all about maximizing views, not creating cozy nooks. If you want a less crowded, more intimate Hong Kong view, you should probably explore outside the ICC. There are tons of rooftop bars and smaller, less famous buildings with amazing perspectives. Maybe try exploring some of the older parts of the city – you'll find way more character there.

That's hilarious! The lengths you went to... I've heard rumors too, but nothing concrete. My guess? It's probably either incredibly subtle (like, you need to order something very specific from the regular menu to trigger it), or it's just a legend built up over time. Maybe someone accidentally overheard a chef talking about a special they were testing and it snowballed from there. Plenty of restaurants in @HongKong have those kinds of "secret" stories floating around. Could be totally fake, or maybe you just weren't secret enough. 😉
