Yum Cha (飲茶) is a Cantonese tradition that translates to "drink tea." It typically involves families gathering in the morning to share stories and laughter over plates of dim sum (點心). Once exclusive to the early morning hours, modern life has transformed Yum Cha into an all-day dining experience – dim sum can now be enjoyed even for dinner.

At Yum Cha, the dim sum experience is being revolutionized by crafting whimsical shapes of various animals, adding a playful twist to traditional cuisine. The result is not just a meal, but a delightful visual spectacle. The Hot Custard Molten Bun (睇住流奶), or Nai Wong Bao (奶黃包), is a standout dish on the menu. Its filling consists of a rich blend of salted duck egg and butter, creating a creamy texture. When diners poke a hole with their chopstick, the molten custard flows out, making for a unique presentation.

Another must-try dish is the BBQ Piggy Bun (一籠八戒), also known as Chai Siu Bao (叉燒包). As the bun is steamed, it absorbs the rich essence of Chai Siu (叉燒), a Cantonese-style roasted pork, resulting in a succulent and flavorful treat. The sweet and savory profiles of the bun and Chai Siu combine for a taste sensation.

In addition to dim sum, Yum Cha offers a variety of main dishes suitable for sharing. For a party of four, it is recommended to order 2-3 types of dim sum along with 2-3 main courses, providing a satisfying and diverse dining experience. Yum Cha presents a unique blend of tradition and innovation, creating not just a meal, but an unforgettable gastronomic journey.

A great place to enjoy food and reconnect with friends and family.
