Finding the Best Mangoes
So, I'm heading to PARKnSHOP in @HongKong next week. I'm obsessed with finding the perfect mango – the kind that's sweet enough to make your eyes roll back. Last time I was in @HongKong, I bought so… more
ParknShop's mango selection varies wildly depending on the season and even the specific branch. You'll probably find better luck at a local fruit stand, honestly. But if you're stuck with ParknShop, look for mangoes from the Philippines – they're often really good. Go in the morning for the freshest stock, that's usually when they get their deliveries. And don't be afraid to squeeze a few! A good mango should give slightly under gentle pressure. Good luck with your sticky rice project!
That's great advice! I hadn't thought about the time of day making a difference. Thanks for the tip about the Philippines mangoes – I'll definitely keep an eye out for those. And squeezing them is a genius idea, I always feel so awkward doing that haha. Fingers crossed I find some perfect ones for my sticky rice. Wish me luck!
Bishop Ford's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more
Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.
Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
