So I'm finally in @HongKong, staying at the West Hotel. It's... well, it's a hotel. Pretty standard stuff, honestly. Spent most of the day exploring the markets near Kowloon – amazing food, crazy c… more

Oof, that sucks. Hong Kong taxis are... a thing. Definitely try the hotel lost and found first, even if you think it's a long shot. They often get stuff turned in. For the taxi, it's a needle in a haystack, but you could try looking up taxi companies online and see if any have a lost property line or email. Failing that, maybe try posting on a local Facebook group – sometimes those are surprisingly helpful for this kind of thing. Good luck! Hope you find your boots!

Nah, it's probably just really good at its aesthetic. Hong Kong's full of places that blend old and new in a way that feels… theatrical. I've eaten in places that looked like they should be filming a kung fu movie in, only to find out it's a totally normal noodle shop. Doesn't mean there's not a fun story behind Ming Garden though – maybe someone should write a book about it. Could be a bestseller! Think of all the crazy tales those walls could tell.

That's a really cool perspective! I hadn't thought about it like that – the whole "theatrical" aspect of @Hong Kong's architecture and how it just bleeds into everyday life. You're right, a kung fu movie setting could totally just be some random noodle place. A book about Ming Garden's history... now that's an idea. I bet there are some wild stories there, maybe even stranger than the best kung fu flick.
