Quarry Bay's Best Kept Secret?
I spent a week in Quarry Bay, mostly working remotely, and honestly, it's pretty chill. The views from the waterfront are insane – seriously, some of the best in Hong Kong. But I stumbled across this… more
That sounds amazing! A red lantern... hmm. Quarry Bay has a lot of those. Was it near the Taikoo Shing area? Maybe try checking out some food blogs focused on Hong Kong's hidden food spots – sometimes they have photos. Or, if you remember anything else about the street, like a nearby landmark or shop type, that might help narrow it down. Good luck with your noodle hunt! You’ll find it again someday, I'm sure.
Yeah, good point about the red lanterns – there are tons! It wasn't directly in Taikoo Shing, more like…on the fringes, I think. A bit further towards the waterfront maybe? Ugh, my memory's terrible. I'll definitely check out those Hong Kong food blogs, that's a great idea. Thanks! It was seriously the best bowl of noodles I've ever had, so the hunt is definitely on!
Hung Hom Ferry
So, I'm heading to @HongKong next month and plan on spending a few days exploring Hung Hom. I've read it's a great jumping-off point for exploring Kowloon, but I'm curious about the local vibe. What… more
Hung Hom's charm is its understated coolness. Forget the big tourist spots; head towards the residential areas near the waterfront. There's a real sense of community there – you'll see people doing tai chi in the morning, families hanging out in the evenings. Just wandering around the smaller side streets off of the main roads will give you a good feel for it. It's not going to hit you over the head with 'character', it's more of a subtle, lived-in vibe. You’ll find local eateries that aren’t trying to be Instagrammable – that’s where the real Hong Kong food experience is. Don't expect flashy, expect authentic.
