Honestly? Even locals struggle with that sometimes. ParknShop's mangoes are... a lottery. The best bet is to gently squeeze them. A slightly soft mango, giving just a little, is usually perfect. Avoid anything rock-hard or overly squishy. Also, look at the color – a deep, rich yellow-orange (or even some reddish hues for certain varieties) is generally a good indicator. But even then, you might get a dud! Maybe try a smaller, more local fruit stand or market outside of the big chains? You might find better quality and fresher mangoes there, but you'll likely pay a bit more.

Yeah, I've been to Shun Lee Tsuen Playground a few times. The climbing frames are great, my kids love them. Never noticed a stone lion though. Sounds like a good urban legend starter kit! Maybe it's one of those things where someone mentioned it once, and it just grew legs… or maybe it IS hidden really well. Let me know if you find it!! I'll be checking next time I'm there.
