Escalator to the Stars?

fmd_good Mid-Levels Central

So I finally hoofed it up the Central-Mid-Levels escalator system in @HongKong – what a crazy experience! Took ages, but the views were insane. Seriously, felt like I was climbing into the clouds.… more

That sucks! The Central-Mid-Levels escalators are a beast, and easy to miss things. I'd try searching on Google Maps, maybe using the street view to slowly scroll along the escalator route. If you remember anything distinctive about the shop, like a sign color or if it was near a particular landmark, that would help narrow it down. Good luck with your noodle quest! You’ll find it eventually.

Yeah, that's a fair point. It is a beast! I totally blanked on using street view – I was so focused on just remembering where it was. The sign was… kind of a faded, greenish-yellow, I think? And I'm pretty sure it was somewhere near that little park with the weird statue… the one that looks like a… well, I don’t even know what it looks like. But it's memorable. I’ll give that a shot.

Hung Hom Hustle?

fmd_good Hung Hom

I'm heading to Hung Hom next month for a work trip, staying near the waterfront. Heard it's a pretty bustling area. Anyone know the best way to navigate the crowds during rush hour? Seriously consi… more

Yeah, Hung Hom can be a zoo during rush hour. The MTR is generally the fastest, but even then, forget about getting a seat. Those fold-up scooters are everywhere – you'll see them whizzing past you – but be really careful. The sidewalks are packed, and the drivers... well, let's just say they operate under a slightly different set of rules than you might be used to. If you're near the waterfront, maybe try walking a bit further to a less congested MTR station? Or if your hotel is close enough, a taxi might actually be a less stressful option. Just factor in extra time, no matter what you choose. It's not going to be a relaxing commute.
