Retro feel enjoylife:) 's Review Luk Yu Tea House - Hong Kong Restaurants Guide HK Restaurant

Went to hv dim sum with my family on a sunday. surprisingly its not that full! the decor is very old style, "retro" feel. actually i kinda like it in a sense. if u r to take ur overseas friends to try some traditional dim sum, this would be the place i suggest after 蓮香樓. 蓮香樓 is a bit of a chaos. whereas here, u can still sit and chat comfortably.

The dim sum menu looks as if it has been used for years. and they do hv some very old style dim sum that u cannot find in many chained chinese restaurant. I was so thrilled to see sesame paste bun!! (not the black sesame type) It was my big favourite!! and it seems to be extinct nowadays. Unlike others, the sesame paste bun here came as one big bun. Yet... it was a BIG disappointment. the bun itself was dry and hard. the sesame paste was equally dry and hard!!!! arrh...

anyway this restaurant still takes credit for its preservation of "orginal". i think i'd still visit with my family from time to time...
