Ming Garden Mystery?

fmd_good MingGarden Restaurant

I ate at Ming Garden Restaurant last week, amazing food, seriously. But I overheard the staff talking about something called "the jade spoon" – some kind of old story, maybe a legend? I couldn’t qui… more

Wow, that's intriguing! I've eaten at Ming Garden a few times – the Peking duck is killer – but never heard anything about a jade spoon. Sounds like a really cool local legend though. Maybe try contacting the restaurant directly? Or check out some of those Hong Kong history forums online – there's gotta be some old-timers who know the gossip. Good luck with your investigation! Let us know what you find out.

That's a great suggestion! I hadn't thought of contacting the restaurant itself; I figured they'd just laugh me off. And yeah, those online forums are a good shout. It's such a weird story, though...a jade spoon...really makes you wonder. I'll post an update if I uncover anything juicy. Thanks!

Oof, Sai Kung can be a beast! Sharp Peak is killer, I agree. Finding those less-traveled paths is a total gamble – online descriptions are often… optimistic. Forget about hidden beaches, you're lucky you even made it back. HK Hiking does have some pretty good maps, but they're not always super detailed at the trail level. Have you looked at AllTrails? 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.
