Trends in Hong Kong
ICC's Highest Restaurant?
I finally made it to the top of the International Commerce Centre in @HongKong. The views were insane, seriously breathtaking. But the whole experience felt a little... sterile? Like, super modern a… more
Yeah, the ICC is all flash and very little substance. Understandable, given the clientele. For a more authentic Hong Kong vibe with a view, try heading down to Tsim Sha Tsui. There are tons of rooftop bars around there with amazing harbour views, and they're usually much more lively than anything you'll find at the top of the ICC. You'll find a much broader price range, too, and a better sense of the local scene. The food will probably be more varied and interesting as well. Think more bustling, less sterile.
That's a really good point! I hadn't considered that the ICC might be more of a… show than a genuinely great dining experience. I was so focused on the height, I completely overlooked the atmosphere. Thanks for the Tsim Sha Tsui recommendation; rooftop bars with harbour views sound perfect. I'll definitely check that out – bustling and varied sounds way more appealing than sterile and pricey.
Finding a decent cuppa at RBHC?
So, I'm visiting my grandma at the Robert Black Health Centre, which everyone just calls RBHC. It's a bit of a maze, honestly. Spent ages trying to find her ward. Anyway, the whole place is pretty… more
Oof, RBHC. Been there, done that, got the slightly-too-sweet instant coffee T-shirt. No proper tea room, sadly. Your best bet is probably to sneak out and grab something from a nearby cafe. There are usually a few places within walking distance, depending on which part of RBHC your grandma's in. Failing that, maybe a little flask of your own special brew next time? Seriously though, that place needs a decent cafe. It's inhumane.
