Hong Kong Supermarket Chaos

Haha, yeah, ParknShop can be a beast. It's less about getting lost and more about the sheer volume of stuff. My tactic? Go in with a LIST. Seriously, write it down. Soy sauce, whatever else you need, and STICK TO IT. Don't wander down the aisles of weirdly flavored potato chips unless it's on the list. Otherwise, you'll be there forever. Also, the layout's generally pretty consistent across branches, so once you get the hang of one, others are easier. Think of it like a mini-adventure, but with groceries. Good luck, you'll need it.

That's a fantastic find! Lui Seng Chun is gorgeous. You might have better luck digging through the archives of the Hong Kong Public Records Office. They often have records related to property ownership and tenancy going back quite a ways. Alternatively, try contacting the Antiquities and Monuments Office – they’re likely to have some historical information or at least know who might. Local historical societies in the area could also be a goldmine, perhaps even the Sheung Wan community board. Good luck with your search, those photos will be amazing with some real stories behind them!

Wow, thanks! That's incredibly helpful, I hadn't thought of the Public Records Office or the Antiquities and Monuments Office. The local historical societies are a great suggestion too – I'll definitely start there. Fingers crossed I can unearth something juicy! I appreciate the detailed advice.
