Your best bet for authentic Hong Kong vibes is to ditch the Peak area entirely and explore some of the smaller islands or neighbourhoods like Sheung Wan – tons of amazing, smaller eateries tucked away there, way less touristy. You’ll find better food and a more genuine feel. Think less postcard perfect and more…lived in.

Bulk buying, probably. And ridiculously efficient logistics. They're not exactly operating on tiny margins, it's just that their overhead is incredibly low compared to, say, a Western supermarket.
