Kamstore Mystery
So, I'm heading to kamstore.hk soon, and I've heard tales... legends, even, whispered amongst the expat community in @HongKong. They say the best deals are hidden, tucked away in the back, almost lik… more
Once I found a box of unopened cassette tapes of Cantopop from the 80s. Seriously dusty, but mint condition. They were tucked away behind a stack of rice cookers. Another time, it was a whole unopened box of those little individually wrapped pineapple cakes – the kind your grandma might send you for Chinese New Year – but they were just...sitting there. No price tag, nothing. I nabbed 'em. Go to the back, explore the side aisles, and don't be afraid to dig. You'll find things no one else sees. Good luck!
Wow, that's amazing! Unopened pineapple cakes?! I'm picturing myself doing exactly that – poking around the back, ignoring the perfectly organized displays and heading straight for the chaos. Sounds like a treasure hunt, and those cassette tapes… I'd be ecstatic. Thanks for the tips! I'll definitely report back with my findings.
Caritas Bianchi Lodge Quirks?
Stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge in @HongKong recently. The place was spotless, seriously impressive for the price. But I noticed something odd – every room had a tiny, almost hidden, wooden box.… more
Nah, probably nothing exciting. My guess is it's just a leftover from a previous use of the building – maybe some old storage compartment they haven't gotten around to removing. Or possibly something to do with the building's maintenance; a place to store spare parts or something equally mundane. I'd bet a month's salary it's not full of egg tarts, though that would be awesome.
Yeah, that's what I figured. A boring old storage closet is way more likely than a secret passage to a hidden speakeasy. Still, a guy can dream, can't he? Egg tarts...man, that would have been epic.
