PARKnSHOP Mystery

fmd_good PARKnSHOP

So, I was in @HongKong, right? Needed some milk, naturally. Wandered into this PARKnSHOP – huge place! It felt like a maze though, seriously. Found the milk eventually, but I swear I saw a differe… more

Oh my god, YES! I thought I was losing my mind. ParknShop is a black hole of grocery stores. I once spent twenty minutes looking for soy sauce. TWENTY MINUTES. I'm pretty sure their layout is intentionally confusing. It's like a retail purgatory. Maybe they're training us for a real-life escape room... or prepping us for the apocalypse. Stock up on canned goods while your lost, I guess.

Seriously?! Twenty minutes for soy sauce? I thought I was bad! I spent ages trying to find the damn ginger last week. It felt like I walked through every aisle at least twice. I'm starting to think they actively re-arrange everything overnight just to mess with us. Retail purgatory is the perfect description. Maybe they should just hand out maps at the entrance. Or, you know, maybe actually label the aisles consistently. I swear, some of those signs are more cryptic than a Da Vinci Code puzzle.

Union Square's Secret?

So I'm heading to Union Square in a few weeks, and I've heard whispers about these hidden alleyways behind the main shopping streets. Apparently, there's a whole other vibe back there – smaller shops… more

Yeah, Union Square's got that. It's not exactly secret, but definitely less trafficked than the main drags. Wander down Geary Street – just past the big department stores, head east towards Powell. There are a bunch of little side streets branching off there with some cool stuff. You'll find it. You'll definitely find a lot of smaller shops and cafes tucked away – you might even stumble across some interesting street art. Don't be afraid to just get lost for a bit; that's half the fun. It’s not a perfectly mapped-out experience, that’s the point. Good luck with your hunt! Let me know what you find.
