Date: November 23rd, 2017 12:17 AM Author: Sooty Startling Sandwich very good, very cheap, very long lines, but it has pork in pretty much everything I think edit: a few subways stops from the main rubberneck areas |

Date: November 23rd, 2017 12:22 AM Author: mustard halford how long a line are we talking? any good alternatives?
any non-pork places (ljl just ljl) |
|
Date: November 23rd, 2017 12:24 AM Author: Sooty Startling Sandwich LONG, popular places easily have 1 hour lines go super early for lunch, be there whenever it opens LJL at Chinese food without pork (maybe in some vegetarian Buddhist monasteries) I like Maxim’s Town Hall in Central for dim sum lunch too but get there early as well (edit also pork in everything I guess) |

Date: November 23rd, 2017 12:32 AM Author: Sooty Startling Sandwich you can be in the city by 11.10 if all goes smoothly and no luggage another 20 minutes by subway to get to the Prince Edward subway for One DS, or 5 minutes walk for Maxims |

Date: November 23rd, 2017 12:36 AM Author: mustard halford the lines gonna be crazy at 1130? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3806499&forum_id=2#34754019) |

Date: November 23rd, 2017 12:45 AM Author: Sooty Startling Sandwich probably not yet, soon after 12 in most popular places (HKers are pretty rigid about when they have lunch breaks) but I don’t know for sure with this place (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3806499&forum_id=2#34754046) |

Date: November 23rd, 2017 1:02 AM Author: Sooty Startling Sandwich ljl the view from the Peak is hard to beat though does she like cooking etc? up near Prince Edward (where that dim sum place is) is Shanghai Street, a little street filled with small shops crammed with chinese cooking implements, including the shop with the cleaver knives that are supposed to be the best around, chinese cooks get them shipped everywhere from this store. it’s pretty cool there, very old school HK |

Date: November 23rd, 2017 1:25 AM Author: mustard halford ljl she said it looks like cheap chink stores in mfh chinktown.
shes hard to please |

Date: November 23rd, 2017 1:29 AM Author: Sooty Startling Sandwich ljl she’s not totally wrong but the cleavers are good: and Anthony Bourdain approved! tell me what she does like and I will try to think of something |

Date: November 23rd, 2017 1:34 AM Author: mustard halford food that's not pork.
a cool walking area / or selfguided walking tour route |
|
Date: November 23rd, 2017 1:41 AM Author: Sooty Startling Sandwich walking tour around Central, the narrow streets once you start going up the hill south of Queen’s Road, is your answer. include the escalator as part of this. couple of temples around there. pork-free Taiwan beef noodles at Kau Kee Food Cafe at 3 Gough Street are good; next door is a great Tsukemen place but the broth is pork. Butao Ramen in Wellington St is great and has a chicken broth option I think. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3806499&forum_id=2#34754324) |

Date: November 23rd, 2017 1:53 AM Author: mustard halford trying to find this on the map. i see the elevator, but queens road runs kinda diagonal... cant see the hill (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3806499&forum_id=2#34754352) |

Date: November 23rd, 2017 2:13 AM Author: Sooty Startling Sandwich queen’s road is the natural shoreline before everything north started being reclaimed. everything north of queens road is flat and highrises, everything south of queens road goes up the hill and is narrow streets, generally interesting walking territory especially in the areas around the escalator (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3806499&forum_id=2#34754416) |
