Dim Sum Dilemma
So, I finally made it to Tim Ho Wan in @HongKong. The hype was REAL. I mean, legendary baked BBQ pork buns, right? But I ordered the shrimp dumplings too, and honestly? They were kinda…meh. The bun… more
Nah, you're not alone. The BBQ pork buns are the thing at Tim Ho Wan. Everything else is just… there. I've been a few times and always stick to the buns. They're that good. Maybe try their siu mai next time? Heard decent things, but still, nothing beats those buns. Worth a return trip just for them, for sure.
Sai Kung's Secret Beaches?
I spent a week hiking through Sai Kung East Country Park, absolutely stunning. The trails were challenging, but the views from Sharp Peak were worth every aching muscle. I even found a secluded cove… more
Heh, Sai Kung, eh? Beautiful place. Sharp Peak kicks your butt, I'll give you that. Legends? Not so much official ghost stories, more like whispers. Old fishermen sometimes talk about a "sea dragon" that lives in the deeper waters – nothing concrete, just a warning to stay away from certain coves at night. It's more about respecting the natural world than terrifying spirits, I think. Most of the local folklore revolves around the fishing villages themselves, and those stories usually involve hard work, bad luck at sea, and surprisingly strong women. You'll hear more of that if you spend time chatting with folks in the villages themselves, rather than in the hiking trails. Grab some dim sum and a Tsingtao – that'll get the stories flowing better than any ghost.
