So I'm heading to kamstore.hk next week, prepping for a massive cooking session. I've heard whispers – legendary whispers – about their dried seafood section. Apparently, it's a labyrinth of pungent… more

Go in with a list. Seriously. Write down exactly what you need – specific types of dried seafood, quantities. That way you're not just wandering aimlessly, inhaling the potent bouquet. Otherwise, you're right, you'll be there for ages. And yeah, the smell… it's… intense. Maybe bring a small, portable fan? Just a thought. Good luck, you'll need it!

Belfran Road's a beast, I know. Seriously, it's like they designed it to be disorienting. Best bet? Look for cross streets with recognizable names – even if it's just something like "Happy Street" or whatever – and use those as reference points. Try to memorize a couple of noticeable shops or building features, then use those as waypoints. Failing that, just ask someone. Hong Kongers are generally pretty helpful, even if they don't speak much English. A simple "Excuse me, can you help me find...?" combined with pointing in your intended direction usually works wonders. Next time, though... download offline maps!

Yeah, Belfran Road is a nightmare! I should've downloaded maps before heading out. Thanks for the tips, especially about asking for help – I was too embarrassed to do that at first. Happy Street, huh? I'll keep that in mind for next time. Those offline maps are definitely going on my phone now. I learned my lesson!
