To start off, im a returning customer as my first experience was good overall. Unfortunately, this time, staffs are beyond rude, unbelievable! I visited back in July for lunch with my husband and my daughter. She’s still a toddler and she is sitting on her stroller. After over 30 minutes wait in the heat we finally saw our table soon available as they were almost finished clearing so I decided to bring my daughter inside first as she was sleeping and sweating a lot. The staff told us to leave and will call us when the table is ready, my husband mentioned; can’t you just let my daughter wait inside and since there were so many people queuing outside I was trying to make ways to not have the stroller block the walk way. The staff simply said no and told us to go back out. I told him again that look the table is ready can’t we just walk there so we don’t block the entrance? He said ‘No’ so right when we carried the stroller down to the walk way (outside the shop) the moment when the stroller’s wheel touched the ground, he called us to come in again….Excuse me but what is this? Are they having fun?
To top that off once we got to our table i made sure to push the stroller the most in (half of the stroller almost under the table) given that I understand that the shop is not big and there is alot of people. 2-3 staff came to me 4-5 separate times and told me to fold the stroller and take my daughter out from the stroller. My husband and I both asked why? It is not consuming more space as it was aligned with the back of my chair. They didn’t care they simply said no! keep the stroller so we asked again ‘then where will my daughter sleep?’ They just said ‘I don’t know your problem.’ Seriously? At this point other tables are watching this drama unfold and all supported me and told the staffs again that the stroller doesn’t affect anything just let the baby sleep.
Just when I was about to pour some tea (Attached photo) I’m not sure is this normal in Hongkong but definitely not normal for me it looked as if they have never clean the tea pot and I dont care if this is tea stain or rust but this just made me question the whole HACCP and wonder has the standard of overall F&B in Hongkong really went down? Not coming back to eat ever again whether with...
Read moreCame here since its on of the few 4+ stars on google map restaurants in Hong Kong
This place is always full and its mostly locals that I see so that's a good sign. They give you a menu with Chinese/English names of dim sum for you to pick
We ordered: Har Gow | Prawn Dumplings (highly recommended, thin and soft skin with lots of meat inside) Siu Mai | Prawn & Pork Dumplings (highly recommended, meat was so tasty and not filled with fillers) Chicken in glutinous rice wrapped in lotus leaf (great) Steamed buns with salted egg custard lava (just ok, needs improvement to be "liquidy" inside) Cantonese Style Steamed Sponge Cake (highly recommended, light, fluffy and actually really good mild taste) Glutinous durian rice balls (highly recommended for durian lovers, but a bit expensive at 35 HKD or around $5 USD)
Service was usual Hong Kong fast paced "no service" service, but a little better than the usual local Hong Kong places
So I highly recommend this dim sum place! I also uploaded the menu, so people can easily see what they offer and prices

Read moreWhen in Hong Kong, eat Dim Sum, so I've heard countless times before, but the questions is where to eat it? After all, Dim Sum is globally available, so we wanted to eat local, not somewhere fancy (boy did we learn that lesson...).
I found Dim Sum Here by accident, as I just happened to be in the area. The restaurant was small, and there was a line up even in late lunch. We were given a ticket and a menu where we could fill with our orders even as we waited for our table. After a short 15 minute wait, we got our table and gave our filled menu to the waiter. I was pleasantly surprised that our order took a while to be ready and came steaming hot.
The star of the table was the pork ribs in black bean sauce. The ribs were chunky and generous, with great flavours. The siu mai were also meaty and tasty. The beef honeycomb was also great if you like to experiment. The fried shrimp wontons were crunchy without being oily, and the steamed egg yolk buns served as amazing dessert after a great Dim Sum meal. The only thing the restaurant lacks is a nap room. Worth a visit for a great Hong...
