Belfran Rd Mystery?
So I'm planning a trip to Hong Kong and stumbled across this Belfran Road. Looks pretty residential, right? The thing is, all the online photos are...bland. Just rows of buildings. My friend, a Ho… more
Yeah, Belfran Road isn't exactly a postcard-perfect spot. It's pretty low-key. My grandma used to live near there – back in the 70s, it was way more lively.

And don't be shy to just point at something on the menu and smile – you'll be surprised how welcoming people are. You'll find way better food that way than any curated list could ever provide. Happy eating!
