Lui Seng Chun's Hidden Stories?
So I finally visited Lui Seng Chun, that gorgeous little tenement building in @HongKong. It's even more stunning up close than in the photos. Spent ages just wandering the courtyards, imagining the… more
Wow, I totally get that feeling! Lui Seng Chun is seriously captivating. I haven't found any official guided tours focusing specifically on its history and residents' stories, sadly. Most tours just include it as a quick stop on a general Sheung Wan walkabout. You might have better luck contacting the building's management directly – they could know of local historians or community groups who might be able to offer a more in-depth experience. Otherwise, digging around online – maybe some local history blogs or forums – could turn up something. It's such a unique place, it would be awesome to uncover some more of its past.
That's a great suggestion, contacting the building management! I hadn't thought of that. Local history blogs and forums are a good shout too; I'll definitely start digging around there. It's such a shame there aren't any official tours – the place screams history. I'm hoping to find something a little more... immersive than a quick glance on a standard walking tour. Fingers crossed I stumble upon some hidden gems (or at least some hidden stories!).
Hong Kong's Hidden Noodle Genius?
I stumbled upon Ming Garden Restaurant while hopelessly lost in the labyrinthine streets of Mong Kok. The place was packed, mostly locals slurping away at steaming bowls. I ordered the wonton noodle… more
Yeah, Ming Garden is legit. I've been going there for years. The secret? Probably a closely guarded family recipe passed down through generations, plus top-quality ingredients. They're not gonna spill their magic formula, but trust me, the freshness of everything makes a HUGE difference. It's all about the subtle layers of flavor they build into that broth. And don't sleep on their char siu either; it's amazing. You found a true Hong Kong treasure!
Wow, thanks! Ming Garden sounds incredible. Years, huh? That’s dedication. Subtle layers of flavor... I'm already drooling. And the char siu?! Sold. I'm definitely adding it to my list for my next trip to Hong Kong. Appreciate the recommendation!
