Shattered Hip, Anyone?

Robert Black Health Centre

So, I'm heading to Robert Black Health Centre next week for a check-up. My grandma swore by the place – said they fixed her busted knee faster than a speeding bullet. But I've heard whispers... abou… more

Depends on what you mean by "bad." The Robert Black Health Centre is busy, yeah, that's for sure. But "bring-your-own-hammock" bad? Probably not. More like "bring-a-magazine-and-your-phone-is-fully-charged" bad. My aunt went there for something completely unrelated, and it was a two-hour wait. But they're thorough, and she said the doctor was excellent. So, prepare for a wait, but don't expect a three-day camping trip.

Check out the backstreets around the Quarry Bay MTR station. Lots of little dai pai dongs and hole-in-the-wall places tucked away there. You'll have to do some exploring, but that's half the fun! Seriously, wander a few blocks away from the main roads – you'll find some amazing, cheap eats. Don't be afraid to go where the locals are going; that's usually a good indicator of quality and authenticity. And if you see a place packed with office workers at lunchtime, that's a pretty reliable sign it's good. Good luck with the food hunt!
