Yum Cha at the Luk Yu

Yum Cha at the Luk Yu in Stanley St, Central is a must as you can see. It opens at 7.00am so it's ideal for breakfast.

one reviewer puts it this way....

"these delicate, bite-sized delights are Hong Kong’s traditional breakfast but are served here until dinnertime. As the waiters constantly refill your cup with narcissus tea, pick and choose from the steamer baskets: golden fried spring rolls, stuffed with a pork-vegetable mixture, the skin so crispy it flakes; dumplings that are big steamed white puffs of dough generously stuffed with sweet-tangy roasted pork; lotus leaves enclosing a savory, glutinous brown rice–and-meat filling; soft-skinned dumplings, fat with fish paste and drizzled with soy sauce; and the famous rich and tender spare ribs."
