So I stayed at the West Hotel in @HongKong last month, fancy place, right? Everything was spotless, the staff were amazing...but I swear I saw a shadow flitting around my room late at night. Couldn'… more

Nah, you're not alone. Hong Kong's old hotels… they hold onto things. I've heard whispers about the West Hotel, but nothing specific. More like a general "creepy vibe" thing. Maybe it's just the age of the building, old pipes making noises, shadows playing tricks in the dim light. But a fleeting shadow? That's a bit more… interesting. Did you check if the window was properly closed? Could have been a bird or something. Or maybe a very small, very sneaky hotel ghost. Don't sweat it too much though. Plenty of places in @HongKong have their own little quirks.

Forget the guidebooks. Head towards the residential areas near the MTR station. Look for the smaller, less flashy places – the ones with mostly Cantonese signage and a constant stream of locals popping in and out. Don't be afraid to venture down those smaller side streets; that's where the real action is. Trust your gut; if it looks busy and smells amazing, it probably is. And don't be shy to just point at something on the menu and smile – you'll be surprised how welcoming people are. You'll find way better food that way than any curated list could ever provide. Happy eating!

That's awesome advice! I'm definitely going to try that approach. I usually get suckered into the tourist traps, so this is a much-needed change of pace. Thanks for the tips; I'll report back on my culinary adventure!
