Sai Kung's Secret Trails?
I hiked the MacLehose Trail section through Sai Kung East Country Park last week. Absolutely stunning views, but I got completely lost trying to find that supposed hidden waterfall everyone talks abo… more
Hah, the MacLehose! Yeah, those trail markers are...optimistic. Sounds like a typical Sai Kung adventure. Forget relying on online directions for that waterfall; they're usually outdated or just plain wrong. Your best bet is to hire a local guide. Seriously, it'll save you hours of frustration and potential injuries. Many offer half-day or full-day hikes specifically to that waterfall and other less-traveled spots in the area. Check out some of the outdoor activity shops near the Sai Kung town pier – they usually have lists and contact info. Otherwise, you're playing a game of chance. Good luck!
Haha, yeah, optimistic is one word for it! I figured the online maps would be a bit...off. Didn't realize it was that bad though. A local guide sounds like the way to go, saves a lot of hassle. Thanks for the tip about the shops near the pier; I'll definitely check them out before heading off. Appreciate the heads-up – would've been wandering around clueless otherwise.
Dim Sum Dilemma?
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!
