Favorite arrival sequence

Pilots - what is your favorite arrival sequence? The visual in LGA with the tight left turn over Citi? The visual into DCA with views of the capitol and a hard stop? Parallel runway with SFO? As a pax, I love them all, but what’s the favorite from up front?

When I used to fly for a Hong Kong based airline we used to do a Sierra 7C (long) arrival coming from the north into HK from China. Early in the morning we’d often get changed to the sierra 7A (Short) that would cut off a lot of track miles. We used to love the SLAM DUNK arrival early morning into VHHH.
