Lin Heung Kui, Cantonese dim sum restaurant in Sheung Wan, Hong Kong.
Lin Heung Kui is a Cantonese dim sum restaurant in Sheung Wan with two floors of dining space located on Des Voeux Road West. Staff members use traditional pushcarts to deliver freshly made dim sum selections directly to the tables throughout the day.
The restaurant is part of a group with roots in Guangzhou that has operated in Hong Kong for many years. It has received multiple awards recognizing its standards and approach to traditional dim sum preparation.
The dining style follows Hong Kong tradition where guests share tables and order dishes from carts rolling between the tables. This type of dim sum experience has shaped the city's food culture for generations.
The restaurant is about four minutes walk from Sai Ying Pun MTR Station and is easily accessible from public transport. Dim sum is served until 4 PM, so visiting in the morning or early afternoon gives you the best selection.
One specialty is the house duck dish filled with lotus seeds, mushrooms, pork, ginkgo nuts, and barley, which requires several hours of preparation. This labor-intensive process shows the skill that goes into each item prepared in the kitchen.
