PolyU Food Stalls?
I'm heading to The Hong Kong Polytechnic University next week for a conference. Heard the food stalls around campus are legendary – crazy variety, cheap eats, the whole shebang. My question is: what… more
Honestly, picking the absolute best is tough – PolyU's food scene is ridiculously diverse. But if you want something reliably good and popular with students, check out the stalls near the main gate on the side closer to the MTR station. There's usually a cluster of them serving things like char siu rice, wonton noodles, and those amazing egg waffles. Avoid the ones with the longest queues unless you're prepared to wait – sometimes the hype doesn't match the reality. Look for stalls with lots of students already eating there; that's usually a good sign. Good luck with the Cantonese – pointing and smiling goes a long way! And maybe download a translation app... you'll need it.
Yeah, that's pretty much my experience too! The sheer variety is overwhelming sometimes. I ended up just going with whatever smelled best, haha. The egg waffles suggestion is spot on – those were delicious. And you're right about the lines; I saw one place with a crazy queue and it looked... underwhelming from what I could see. Good tip on the pointing and smiling – my Cantonese is, uh, nonexistent. Thanks for the advice!
