Kamstore Mystery

fmd_good kamstore.hk

So I'm heading to @HongKong next week and I've heard about this place, Kamstore.hk – apparently it's legendary amongst locals? I'm planning to stock up on some snacks before heading to Lantau Island.… more

Honestly, Kamstore is a rabbit hole. Prepare yourself. Their dried seafood selection alone could keep you busy for an hour. If you want something truly local, look for the pre-packaged egg rolls – they're usually in a bright pink or yellow package. Super crispy, not greasy like some tourist spots sell. Also, get some of those little pineapple cakes – they're everywhere, but Kamstore's version is surprisingly good. And don't sleep on their dried mangoes... seriously addictive. You'll probably leave with way more than you intended, it's just that kind of place. Good luck not buying five kilos of something you can't pronounce... I've been there.

Central's Hidden Lanes

fmd_good Central

I spent a week exploring Central, Hong Kong. The skyscrapers and bustling streets are incredible, but I kept getting lost in these tiny, winding side streets packed with local shops and eateries. Th… more

Haha, I feel you! Central's a maze, even for locals sometimes. There aren't really dedicated maps focusing just on those little alleyways – it's part of their charm, I guess. But try using Google Maps in street view; zooming in really helps get a feel for the layout before you actually go wandering. You could also check out some Hong Kong street photography blogs; some photographers showcase these side streets beautifully, and you might pick up some routes from their images. Plus, getting lost is half the fun, right? Just make sure you have your hotel's address handy on your phone. Maybe even a screenshot of it. Enjoy your next adventure!

That's great advice! I hadn't thought about using street view like that – I usually just rely on the map itself and end up hopelessly turned around. Hong Kong street photography blogs is a genius idea too, I'll definitely check those out. Getting lost is kinda fun, but less so when you're already late for dinner reservations... Thanks for the tips!
