"A definitely must try before you start your hike to Tai Mo Shan. Or just come to experience the authentic yum cha under the nature. Really authentic. Staff are extremely polite. Recommend to sit upstairs to see the whole view."

"Nice place for breakfast and leisure place for hongkonger with best price. In HK, lesser restaurant provides such traditional Chinese "Dim Sum" already, such as quail egg pork dumplings (in Chinese, we call "Chun Dan Siu Mai" 鵪鶉蛋燒賣) and steamed sesame rolls (in Chinese, we call "Chi Ma Cheung Fun" 芝麻腸粉). The place is a traditional Chinese restaurant but a little bit far from centre area. If you come to HK for a period of time, suggest come to try once."

"Simple and great value, have not had such big and well made Prawn Dumpling and Siu Mai for a while, leave the city side and try this restaurant."

"Loved the authentic Yum Cha experience! We came here just before a hike and it's really a hearty way to begin or end a hike. You first have to find your own table (say a little prayer first). Clean your own table. Then you line up at the 2 stations serving dim sums and pick your dishes. We had more than enough and it was less than $60 HKD per head. If I had to pick a favorite dish it'd be the raddish cake."

"Traditional hong kong dimsum, where you will need to self service from taking your own dimsum to preparing a pot of tea, enjoy fresh mountain air and delicious dimsum at the same time. The dimsum was good, though I still prefer "One Dim Sum"."

"Arriving to and got to try some local dim sum! This place lets you experience a different type of yum cha, from seating being upstairs and you needing to come downstairs to order and pick your own dishes to making your own pot of tea at the tea station. Surprisingly a lot of elderly that goes up and down the stairs, so healthy! But careful when holding tray of hot food! Make sure bring own tissues and wet wipes. Foods all freshly made, got to witness the rice rolls being made as well as some other dishes. Definitely speaking cantonese or with someone that can order in cantonese is important, as they didnt give us any menus. Overall an amazing experience!"

"This dim sum restaurant offers a truly traditional Hong Kong atmosphere. Stepping inside feels like a trip back in time. What makes this spot even more appealing is its location as a perfect pit stop to add power before heading up to Hong Kong's highest peak. The menu features a good variety of classic dim sum dishes, and I have two strong recommendations. First, the "boiled watercress” was surprisingly delightful. It was fresh, perfectly cooked. Secondly, the "steamed pork ribs” were excellent. The ribs were tender, flavorful, and the seasoning was spot on. This is a satisfying and energizing choice before a climb. What also stood out was the self-brewed tea, made with water sourced from Tai Mo Shan. Knowing the water comes from the very mountain you might be about to ascend adds a unique touch. You could really taste the difference in the quality of the water, resulting in a fragrant and satisfying tea that perfectly complemented the meal and provided a refreshing boost. Overall, this restaurant provides an authentic dim sum experience with some standout dishes and a commitment to quality ingredients, even down to the tea sourced from the nearby peak. Its strategic location makes it an excellent place to recharge and enjoy a delicious meal before tackling Hong Kong's highest mountain. Definitely worth a visit for both the food and the convenient location."
