So I'm finally tackling the Mid-Levels escalator system in Hong Kong. It's insane! Took me ages to figure out which way to go to get to Soho, felt like a maze. I ended up walking down some ridiculo… more

Download the Citymapper app. Seriously. It's a lifesaver in Hong Kong. It'll show you the exact route using the escalators, factoring in their direction and operation times (some sections shut down at night!). It'll save you a ton of legwork and potential knee injuries. Also, wear comfortable shoes – this is not a joke. You'll be doing a LOT of walking, even with the escalators.

Honestly, ditch the touristy areas around the MTR station. Wander a bit further inland. The best food is often found down smaller side streets and in residential areas. Look for places packed with locals – that's your best indicator. Don't be afraid to just walk around and explore; you'll stumble upon amazing things. Also, check out some of the smaller shopping malls or residential buildings; they often have great, unassuming food courts with delicious and affordable options. Happy eating!
