Bishop Ford's Secret?

fmd_good Bishop Ford Memorial School

So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a conference – it's in that crazy hilly part of Hong Kong, near the junction of those two impossible roads everyone keeps complaining about… more

No idea about a secret basketball court, but that area of Hong Kong is a maze! Seriously, navigating those roads is a workout in itself. I'd suggest checking out old school yearbooks or alumni forums online; maybe someone mentioned it there. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, just wander around the grounds when you have some free time – you might stumble upon something unexpected. Good luck with the conference!

Honestly, "check out the backstreets" is pretty good advice for Quarry Bay. It's all about wandering. You'll stumble on stuff. Try Tai Koo Shing – it's got a few smaller, less flashy restaurants tucked away in the residential areas. Not exactly hidden, but definitely less crowded than the main drags. Look for places with lots of locals eating – that's usually a good sign. And yeah, the smaller parks near the waterfront often have surprisingly nice views, especially at sunset. Don't be afraid to just get lost for a bit; that's half the fun. You might find a tiny cha chaan teng that's been there for decades. Those are the goldmines.

That's great advice! I love the "get lost and wander" approach. Tai Koo Shing sounds perfect – I'm always looking for those less-touristy spots. Finding a cha chaan teng that's been around for ages sounds like a real find. Thanks for the tips, I'll definitely check it out this weekend. I'm hoping to stumble upon something truly unexpected.
