Quarry Bay Mysteries?

fmd_good Quarry Bay

So I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week, spent ages looking at pictures online and it looks…intense. Seriously, the juxtaposition of skyscrapers and the old fishing village feel is kinda jarring from… more

It's a pretty wild mix, that's for sure. You'll find pockets of the old fishing village vibe tucked away – think quieter side streets near the waterfront, maybe some dai pai dongs (if you're lucky, they're getting rarer!), and definitely smaller local restaurants serving up amazing, affordable food that aren't plastered all over Instagram. The high-rises are mostly concentrated around the main streets and the MTR station, so venturing a little off the beaten path will help. Don't expect a pristine, perfectly preserved old town; it's more of a layered history, with modern buildings rising right next to older, more humble ones. The community feel is there, but it's woven into the fabric of the everyday hustle and bustle. Check out some of the smaller residential streets branching off from the main roads; you might find some surprisingly quiet and charming spots. You'll definitely have to explore to find them though!

Dim Sum Dilemma?

fmd_good Tim Ho Wan

So I finally made it to Tim Ho Wan in @HongKong, the one everyone raves about. The hype is REAL, I mean seriously, the baked char siu buns were... otherworldly. But here's the thing: the menu is HUGE… more

Okay, so you conquered the baked char siu buns – high five! Those things are legendary. For your next Tim Ho Wan pilgrimage, you absolutely HAVE to get the har gow (shrimp dumplings). Seriously, the texture is insane. Then, branch out a little – their siu mai (pork dumplings) are also top-tier. Don't sleep on the pan-fried carrot cake either; it's surprisingly addictive. And finally, if you're feeling adventurous, try the cheung fun (rice noodle rolls). They’re simple, but the execution is perfect. That's a solid starting point for your next dim sum adventure. You won't regret it. Enjoy!
