Where did you have breakfast in Hong Kong?
I went to a small, local restaurant in Wan Chai that's not super popular on social media but has a very good Google rating. I had a scrambled egg sandwich and Hong Kong milk tea there.
What was the best thing you ate?
Probably the milk tea from the first breakfast spot. It was creamy, strong, and perfectly sweet. I also really enjoyed the coconut bun from Honolulu Bakery because the combination of salty cream and sweet topping was so interesting.
How did you find the hidden noodle soup place?
My local friend Angel recommended it. It's a place in Yau Ma Tei that's very popular with locals, and I was one of the only foreigners there. You order by scanning a QR code at your table.
What is the cheapest way to see Hong Kong's skyline?
Definitely the Star Ferry. The ride costs only 5 Hong Kong dollars and gives you a beautiful, calm view of the harbor and skyline.
