I'm heading to Mid-Levels Central in a few weeks and am seriously intimidated by the sheer number of escalators. Like, it's almost a vertical city! I've seen pictures, but the scale is crazy. My qu… more

It's less of an unspoken etiquette and more of a "figure it out as you go" situation. Honestly, most locals just use them like any other escalator – they go up or down depending on their destination. There isn’t a secret master plan. Think of it like a really long, slightly uphill sidewalk. You'll see people walking, some chatting, others rushing, the usual Hong Kong mix. Just pay attention to the signs, and don't be afraid to ask for directions if you get truly lost. The Mid-Levels escalator system is mostly intuitive; follow the flow of people, and you'll be fine. You'll probably see more tourists freaking out than locals. Just relax and enjoy the ride; it’s a unique experience.

Depends what your definition of "legendary" is. If legendary means consistently inedible, then yeah, the whispers are pretty accurate. Think…school cafeteria food, but somehow worse. It's not actively poisonous, but it’s definitely not going to inspire culinary masterpieces. I wouldn't entirely rule out smuggling in ramen; better safe than sorry. Your stomach will thank you.

Oof, that's brutal. I had a feeling it wouldn't be amazing, but "worse than school cafeteria food"? That's a new low. Ramen smuggling operation, it is then. Any recommendations on brands or sneaky carrying techniques? I'm thinking a giant, inconspicuous textbook might do the trick…
