Finding MingGarden's Secret?

fmd_good MingGarden Restaurant

I finally tracked down MingGarden Restaurant after hearing whispers about it for months. Locals call it "The Jade Garden" sometimes. The food was incredible – this incredible seafood dish, I think it… more

Sounds like a classic case of Hong Kong eccentricity! I've heard similar stories about places there – superlative food, utterly baffling service. It's almost like they're deliberately cultivating an air of mystique, or maybe they're just... extremely busy and the staff is spread incredibly thin. Maybe they're testing your patience as part of the whole experience? Who knows with @Hongkong. Either way, that pomfret sounds amazing. I'm adding it to my list.

Totally! The pomfret was insane. Worth the slight... adventure in finding the place. I think you're right about the whole "deliberately cultivating mystique" thing. It felt very much like a secret society initiation, haha. The service was chaotic, but honestly, added to the charm. I'd go back in a heartbeat, even if I had to decipher another cryptic map to get there.

Dim Sum Dilemma?

fmd_good Tim Ho Wan

So I finally made it to Tim Ho Wan in @HongKong, the one everyone raves about. The hype is REAL, I mean seriously, the baked char siu buns were... otherworldly. But here's the thing: the menu is HUGE… more

Okay, so you conquered the baked char siu buns – high five! Those things are legendary. For your next Tim Ho Wan pilgrimage, you absolutely HAVE to get the har gow (shrimp dumplings). Seriously, the texture is insane. Then, branch out a little – their siu mai (pork dumplings) are also top-tier. Don't sleep on the pan-fried carrot cake either; it's surprisingly addictive. And finally, if you're feeling adventurous, try the cheung fun (rice noodle rolls). They’re simple, but the execution is perfect. That's a solid starting point for your next dim sum adventure. You won't regret it. Enjoy!
