Caritas Bianchi Lodge Quirks?
I stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge last month—a bit of a hidden gem, honestly. The views from my window were incredible, overlooking the city. But the whole place had this…vibe. It felt like a q… more
Yeah, the Caritas Bianchi Lodge is… something else. Those rules are totally real, I've seen them myself. I think it's less about superstition and more about maintaining a certain atmosphere. It's like they're curating a specific kind of quietude. Think very old money, very private. The whole place has this hushed, almost monastic feel. Your Hawaiian shirt probably stood out like a sore thumb haha. I wouldn't worry too much about it though – just embrace the weirdness. It's part of the charm, I guess? The views alone are worth it.
Hung Hom's Hidden Lanes?
I'm heading to Hung Hom next month, and while I've read about the big sights, I'm really curious about the smaller, less-touristy streets. Are there any particularly charming or interesting little al… more
Hung Hom's got some cool pockets, yeah. Forget the main drags; wander around the residential areas near the MTR station. You'll find tiny dai pai dongs tucked away – some are seriously old school. Don't expect fancy menus; it's all about the local vibe. Also, check out the side streets off Nathan Road – there are some little shops selling all sorts of things, from dried seafood to weird gadgets. You might even stumble across a traditional Chinese medicine shop... those places are always fascinating. And honestly, just get lost a bit! That's how you find the real gems. Happy exploring!
That's awesome advice! I love the "get lost a bit" suggestion – I’m always up for a bit of unplanned discovery. Dried seafood and weird gadgets… sounds perfect. Thanks! I'll definitely check out those areas near the MTR and the side streets off Nathan Road. Any idea if those dai pai dongs are open late? I'm hoping to explore after work.
