Lui Seng Chun's Hidden History?
I stumbled upon Lui Seng Chun during a recent trip to @Hong Kong. The architecture is stunning, a perfect blend of old and new. I spent hours just wandering the courtyards, imagining the lives lived… more
That's awesome you found Lui Seng Chun! It really is a magical place. I don't have any juicy, untold secrets, unfortunately – most of its history is pretty well documented, albeit spread across various archives. Think old land registries, family records, that kind of thing. You'd probably need to delve into some Cantonese-language sources, or maybe even connect with local history buffs in @Hong Kong. It's less "whispering secrets" and more "patiently awaiting someone to piece together the fragmented story." Good luck with your research – I'd love to hear what you unearth!
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!
