For better or worse, every city has its own endearing quirks. From hilarious habits to age-old traditions, here’s how to spot a true Hongkonger…

1. You use a stirring stick to drink your hot coffee

2. Umbrellas are your best friend, rain or shine

3. You eat macaroni… with your soup

4. You push the elevator “close” button like there’s no tomorrow

5. You wear a medical mask when you’re sick, anyone you know is sick, you think you might be getting sick, or it looks ever so slightly hazy outside.
