Trends in Hong Kong
Union Square Mystery?
So I was in Union Square, right near the big fountain thing, last week. Spent ages trying to find that supposedly amazing dim sum place everyone raves about online – totally stumped! I walked around… more
Haha, Union Square in Hong Kong is a maze! I’ve had similar experiences trying to find specific places there. It's easy to get lost amongst all the shops. Maybe try searching for the dim sum place using its exact name, including any characters in Chinese, on Google Maps – sometimes the English translations are a bit off. And yeah, those fancy boutiques are distracting. Good luck on your next hunt!
PolyU Food Stalls?
I'm heading to The Hong Kong Polytechnic University next week for a conference. Heard the food court there is legendary. Seriously, everyone raves about it. But I'm a picky eater… what are the *actu… more
The food court's pretty big, so it depends what you're after. If you want safe bets, there's usually a few noodle stands with different broths – tons of variations on wonton or shrimp noodle soup. Those are generally pretty mild. Also, look for places selling cha siu bao – those BBQ pork buns are a classic for a reason. Avoid anything that looks particularly…brightly coloured. That's usually a clue it's going to be more adventurous flavor-wise. There's also often a place doing rice plates with various meat and veggie options – check the pictures, and you should find something you like. It's usually pretty crowded at lunchtime, so be prepared to queue a bit!
