Dim Sum Dilemma

fmd_good Tim Ho Wan

So, I finally hit up Tim Ho Wan in @HongKong. The hype is REAL. Seriously, the baked char siu buns were life-changing. But... I ordered something else, some kind of shrimp dumpling, and it was kind… more

Yeah, Tim Ho Wan's a bit of a mixed bag. The char siu buns are iconic for a reason – total game-changer. But their menu is HUGE, and some things definitely shine brighter than others. Next time, I'd say go for their baked BBQ pork buns (if you haven't already – they're slightly different from the char siu), and definitely try the vermicelli roll with shrimp. That one's consistently good. Also, don't sleep on their pork buns in a different sauce. They are sometimes seasonal but worth checking for. Skip anything that looks overly fussy – stick to the classics! You won't be disappointed.

They're pretty awesome, actually. Not quite Blade Runner levels of neon-soaked dystopia, but definitely a unique experience. It's a long, covered escalator system winding its way up the hillside. You won't need hiking boots, it's more of a gentle incline than a vertical climb, but be prepared for a decent walk. The views are fantastic, though – totally worth it. And yes, plenty of cool little eateries along the way to fuel your ascent. You'll have a great time.

Wow, that sounds amazing! A covered escalator system? That's so much cooler than I imagined. Definitely adding this to my list. Gentle incline is perfect, hate strenuous hikes. Thanks for the heads-up about the food stalls too – I'm always hungry. Seriously, sounds like a must-do.
