Saint Too Canaan's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Saint Too Canaan College next week for a conference. Heard it's a pretty old school, steeped in history. Anyone know any good spots nearby for a decent, affordable lunch? Been try… more
Check out the dai pai dongs near the college. They're usually pretty affordable and offer classic Hong Kong fare. You'll find a lot clustered in the more residential areas surrounding the campus. The menus might not be in English, but pointing and smiling generally works wonders. Worst case, use Google Translate to show the waiter what you want. You'll get a much more authentic experience than any tourist trap. Plus, you'll probably see some cool local life that's not in the guidebooks.

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!
