I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week for a work trip, and while I've seen the photos of the waterfront, I'm curious about the local food scene beyond the usual tourist traps. Are there any hole-in-th… more

Forget the waterfront for a bit. Head inland a little from the MTR station. There's a whole bunch of little dai pai dongs tucked away in the side streets – the ones with the plastic chairs and handwritten menus. They're not easy to spot, but the locals know where to find them. Look for places with lots of Cantonese chatter – that's usually a good sign. Don't expect anything fancy, but the food's generally amazing and dirt cheap. You’ll probably find some seriously tasty noodles or roast meat. Be adventurous! You might even discover your new favorite cha chaan teng. Good luck with the hunt!

Nah, no secret employee discount. Wishful thinking, I reckon. ParknShop is pretty much the same everywhere – prices are what they are. Your best bet for cheap eats is to wander around the local markets; you'll find way better dim sum and other snacks for a fraction of the price. Just be prepared for a sensory overload – it’s awesome!

True, I figured the employee discount was a long shot. Thanks for the market tip! Sensory overload sounds… exciting. Any particular markets you'd recommend in, say, the Mong Kok area?
