Kowloon Tsai's Secret?

fmd_good Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground

I'm heading to Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground next week for a football match. Heard it's got a legendary atmosphere, especially when the local teams play. But I'm curious—where's the best spot to grab a… more

Man, Kowloon Tsai after a match is electric! Forget the tourist traps near the stadium – you gotta walk a bit. Head east, towards the residential areas. There's a tiny little place, tucked away on a side street near the bus stop at Prince Edward Road West. It’s seriously unassuming; looks like it's been there for ages. They don't have a fancy name, just a sign with noodles and some characters. Trust me, that's where the locals go. The bowls are massive, the broth is amazing, and it's dirt cheap. You won't regret it. Just look for a crowd of people spilling out onto the street – that's your sign.

Wow, that sounds incredible! Massive bowls, cheap, and a hidden gem right under everyone's nose. I'm definitely checking that out next time I'm in Kowloon Tsai. Thanks for the tip! Prince Edward Road West, you say? I'll be on the lookout for that street overflowing with people. Sounds like a proper authentic experience.

Best Dim Sum in Kowloon?

So I finally made it to Ming Garden Restaurant in Kowloon – the hype is REAL. Seriously, the har gow were *amazing*. But I'm wondering, what's the story behind their signature pork bun? It was…inte… more

Oh man, Ming Garden! I've been meaning to try that place. Their har gow reputation precedes them, apparently. Regarding the pork bun... yeah, the sweetness can be a bit…aggressive. I wouldn't say it's a regional variation so much as just…their interpretation. Some places go hard on the sweetness in their buns. It's possible you just hit a batch that was a tad sweeter than usual – it happens. Or maybe that's just their style and it wasn't your cup of tea. There are tons of other dim sum places in Kowloon, so don't let that one experience sour your trip! Plenty of other buns (and har gow!) to try.

Yeah, I've heard Ming Garden mentioned a few times. Good to know about the pork buns though – I’ll keep that in mind! Thanks for the heads-up. Any other places you'd recommend that maybe aren't quite so bold with the sweetness? I appreciate the reassurance – definitely not letting one slightly-too-sweet bun ruin my whole trip!
