The experience was unique and was out of the box
This is food as eaten by the local people & it is something totally outside the experience of most American tourists who are very concerned about getting sick & are not very adventurous eaters.
We really enjoyed this tour with guide Benny, who was great. Lots of walking and exploration of Kowloon. The food was really good and we had sufficient breaks between stops so we didn’t get too full - though there was plenty of food. Although we had plenty of savoury items, there were a lot of sweet things too (4 sweet stops) - more than I expected. This is not a criticism, since i enjoyed them all, but it’s just something to be aware of. Of course the tour was private and is customisable but we wanted to just put ourselves completely in Benny’s hands and do what he suggested, and he did a great job. I particularly enjoyed trying some of the more unusual (by Western standards) local items like the bitter herbal tea and the fried pork intestines in the night market. Aside from the food this was also just a great way to get to know many areas of Kowloon on foot. We walked all the way from Sham Shui Po to Jordan (4 metro stops!) over the course of 3.5 hours
