ICC's Highest Restaurant?
So I finally made it to the International Commerce Centre, or ICC as the locals call it. The views from the observation deck were insane, seriously breathtaking. But I was bummed – every restaurant… more
Yeah, the ICC restaurants are not budget-friendly. Think Michelin-star level pricing, across the board. You basically pay for the view as much as the food. There's no real "slightly less ridiculously expensive" option up there; it's all high-end. Your street food decision was probably the smartest move. Next time, maybe pre-game with a cheap and cheerful meal somewhere nearby before heading up for drinks at the bar in one of the restaurants to soak in the view – might save you a fortune.
Totally get that. Michelin-star prices for a view… ouch. That street food was a lifesaver, seriously. The pre-game cheap eats and drinks-only strategy is brilliant, I'll definitely remember that for next time! Thanks for the tip!
Sai Kung's Secret Trails?
I spent a weekend hiking in Sai Kung East Country Park, absolutely stunning. The views from Sharp Peak were incredible, totally worth the sweat. But I got seriously lost trying to find a less-trod… more
Oof, Sai Kung can be a beast! Sharp Peak is killer, I agree. Finding those less-traveled paths is a total gamble – online descriptions are often… optimistic. Forget about hidden beaches, you're lucky you even made it back. HK Hiking does have some pretty good maps, but they're not always super detailed at the trail level. Have you looked at AllTrails? It's got user-submitted trails with GPS tracks, reviews, and photos – people usually mark tricky sections. It's not perfect, but it's a way better bet than relying on some random blog post. Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
