Finding MingGarden's Secret Menu?
So I finally went to MingGarden Restaurant, that place everyone's been raving about in @HongKong. The food was amazing, seriously some of the best dim sum I've ever had. But the menu...it felt incomp… more
Nah, no magic words, unfortunately. It's more about being a regular. Hit them up a few times, order a bunch of stuff, maybe chat with the staff (be friendly, not creepy!). They'll eventually start dropping hints about the off-menu stuff, or even just offer it up. Think of it like building a relationship – with delicious dim sum as the reward. Patience, my friend, patience... those pork belly buns are worth the wait!
Lost on Belfran Rd
I was trying to find this tiny bakery my friend raved about, supposedly tucked away somewhere on Belfran Road. She described this amazing egg tart, but gave me the vaguest directions. I wandered arou… more
Belfran Road is a BEAST, I feel ya. It's like a labyrinth of identical buildings. My advice? Embrace the getting lost part. Seriously. Download Google Maps offline, obviously, but then put your phone away. Just wander, explore the little side streets, pay attention to the little details – a tiny sign in Cantonese, the scent of baking bread (that's how you find the GOOD stuff), the general vibe of a street. Those little things are your clues. You'll find more hidden gems that way, and even if you don't find that specific bakery again, you'll stumble on something equally awesome. Also, talk to people! Locals are usually happy to point you in the right direction. It’s all part of the adventure. It’s Hong Kong, after all.
