᠎Sun Hing Restaurant

Top choice in Hong Kong


Many a drunken Soho reveller has trudged westward after a long night seeking cheap dim sum, but to no avail. Then just before they pass out, there appears, vision-like, Sun Hing in all its scrumptious glory! They weep. True story, though some say tears are shed over the runny 'Golden Sauce' custard bun (流沙包) – don't leave without ordering some.

Little English is spoken, but there's an English menu and staff will also wave you over to point at what you want in baskets on a table at the side of the cafe.
