Dim Sum Dilemma?

fmd_good Tim Ho Wan

So I finally hit up Tim Ho Wan in @HongKong, the one everyone raves about. The queue was insane, like seriously, an hour-long wait. Worth it? Absolutely, the baked char siu buns were to die for. Bu… more

Totally get you. Tim Ho Wan's reputation precedes it, and that queue is a beast. The baked char siu buns are legendary – I've never had anything quite like them.

Don't let the slightly underwhelming shrimp dumplings spoil the whole experience though – those buns alone make it worth the wait.

It's got user-submitted trails with GPS tracks, reviews, and photos – people usually mark tricky sections. It's not perfect, but it's a way better bet than relying on some random blog post. Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
