I wasn't born in Hong Kong but I used to travel back every year as a kid. It's been 10 years since I last been so I'm a bit nervous meeting my large family from my mom's side and want to leave a good impression. What can I get from US or Canada that people would actually want. There's people of all ages from kids to elderly. I know people say to go to Costco but I don't know what to get specifically.

I tried going to trader Joe's but they didn't have the totes and I also don't know if they are still popular. Any suggestions including trendy brands that Hong Kong people might like that is popular over there would be greatly appreciated!

I guess its because the band have the same name and it confuses the system

My wife and I are planning a 7 day trip to Hong Kong in November. Few stays we have shortlisted are (all near TST or Jordan station):

- B P International

- Empire Hotel Kowloon－Tsim Sha Tsui

- Kimberley Hotel

Our budget is around 900 to 1000 HKD but would prefer a stay from where all major touristy things are nearby as well good city vibes. Can you help me choosing such a stay and if anyone has any experience of the properties mentioned, would appreciate a review of those. Thanks.

Hi All,

(I honestly don't know if I've worded the title correctly).

My lovely neighbours are from Hong Kong and one of their mothers' have just passed away. They'll be coming home soon, and I wanted to acknowledge their grief/situation subtly.

I've read up on Hongkonger traditons, and for how I know my neighbors, and for when I see them next, none seem completely appropriate.

I've Googled and AI'd, but they're so gaslighty and contradictory that I wanted the opinions of true HK people to ensure I'm not overstepping or being inappropriate.

I believe Baak Gam wouldn't be correct as I'm not going to the funeral, and that flowers would not be given as a gift to the family but sent to the funeral home instead. I've read about round seasonal fruit, and I know there's colours to avoid too. I'm considering tea perhaps, as it's a good go between HK and UK tradition, or should I leave them be altogether even?

Any suggestions, directions, or tips etc, is most welcome and appreciated. Thank you in advance :-)

Hello. Can anyone recommend a good gym that is affordable.

Hi everyone! My friend and I are travelling from India for our first international trip together, and seeing The Weeknd live in Hong Kong is the highlight of it. We missed the official sale and are looking for 2 tickets for Friday 30 October (standing if possible).

Flexible on section
Happy to pay a fair premium
We’re in Hong Kong from 24 Oct and can meet in person

If you have tickets you can’t use, please DM me. Thanks so much, and see you at Kai Tak! 🖤

Checked the Hospital Authority wait times on ⁠ae.wait.hk⁠ tonight around 8:30 PM and noticed Prince of Wales is showing 13 hours, Pamela Youde is at 10.5, and Princess Margaret spiked to 9.5 hours with critical/emergency flags active.

I know public A&Es get backed up on weekends once private clinics close, but are double-digit queues standard for mid-October, or is there an early flu/respiratory wave filling up medical beds right now?

Any insight from people who've had to use A&E recently would be appreciated.

Hello all.

My wife and older teen daughter will be in Hong Kong from 12/30 for about a week. This is all of our first time in Hong Kong.

We understand that the Kowloon hotels are the typical NYE venue for dinner/dancing/fireworks, but we are hoping to solicit broader ideas for a fun evening that draws from whatever traditions (or novations) HK has to offer.

We will be staying in Central but are comfortable with public transport.

Many thanks for the suggestions!

I know local kids are pushed to pick their own English 1st names of their choice if they don't already have one once they attend school. Are they purposefully being funny at all? If not, can't someone at school give them some guidance?
