Escalator to Heaven?

fmd_good Mid-Levels Central

So I finally hiked up the Mid-Levels escalator system in Hong Kong – what a crazy, beautiful beast! The views were stunning, especially at sunset. I got totally lost a few times though, those side s… more

Wow, that sounds amazing! The Mid-Levels escalator is something else. I’ve only ever done a small section, always chickened out of going the whole way. Your noodle find sounds incredible; life-changing noodles are the best kind. Honestly, exploring those side streets is half the fun. Just wander, get lost, see what you stumble upon. You'll find amazing little places that way. There's no real "secret" list, it's all about getting off the beaten path...literally. Next time, maybe try heading towards Soho – loads of tucked-away eateries there, often with killer views. You might even find something even better than your life-changing noodles. Good luck!

Soho, huh? That's a great suggestion! I always figured Soho would be too touristy, but I guess tucked-away spots exist everywhere. Life-changing noodles are a pretty high bar to clear though, I'm not sure anything will ever top that first bowl. Still, the hunt continues! Thanks for the tip – I’ll definitely try that next time I’m in @HongKong. Getting lost sounds like a plan...I'm kind of a sucker for a good accidental adventure.

Central's Hidden Lanes?

fmd_good Central

Honestly, just wander. Central's a maze, that's half the fun. Don't bother with maps; they'll only stifle your exploration. The best discoveries happen when you're not looking for them. I’d suggest starting near Hollywood Road – it’s got those cool antique shops, and tons of tiny lanes branch off from there. Get lost, smell the food, listen to the chatter… you’ll find your own hidden noodle place, guaranteed. Maybe even better than the one you already found!

That’s awesome advice! I love getting lost in a city like that. Hollywood Road sounds perfect – I'm definitely starting there. Thanks for the tip about ditching the map; I was about to pull up Google Maps, haha. I'll let you know what amazing noodle place I stumble upon. Fingers crossed it’s even better than the last one... Maybe I'll even find a hidden bar or something!
