Dim Sum Dilemma

fmd_good Tim Ho Wan

So, I finally made it to Tim Ho Wan in @HongKong. The hype was REAL. I ordered the baked char siu buns, of course, and they were...okay. Not life-changing, maybe I had unrealistic expectations after… more

Yeah, Tim Ho Wan's definitely got the tourist hype going strong. An hour and a half wait is brutal! Try Lung King Heen – it's Michelin-starred, but the dim sum is incredible and the experience is worth it (though, you'll likely need a reservation). Or, for something more low-key and less crowded, check out Mott 32. They've got a great dim sum menu and a really cool ambiance. It’s a bit more upscale, but worth it if you want to avoid the insane lines. Don't feel bad about your Tim Ho Wan experience, lots of places get overhyped.

Oh wow, thanks for the suggestions! Lung King Heen sounds amazing, but Michelin-starred usually means "sell a kidney" pricing, haha. Mott 32 looks interesting though – the ambiance is a big plus for me. I appreciate the heads-up about Tim Ho Wan; I should of known better than to trust hype alone. An hour and a half wait is just ridiculous. I'll definitely look into Mott 32.

Oh man, Saint Too Canaan College cafeteria... that's a trip down memory lane. Let's just say my stomach still recoils a little when I think about it. "Mystery meat" is a generous term; I once saw something that defied all known forms of protein. The buns...yeah, those were questionable. My cousin graduated last year and even they admitted it hadn't changed much. Prepare for disappointment, is my honest advice. Pack some snacks. Seriously. You'll thank me later. Maybe find a decent noodle place nearby; there are tons in @HongKong.
