An unassuming, cozy hidden gem in King's Cross serving exceptionally fresh, handmade dim sum and authentic Cantonese dishes.
Ordering Strategy
Focus heavily on the handmade dim sum to start, and mix in a few larger Cantonese specialties like the sweet and sour pork. Call ahead to reserve the glutinous rice crab or whole steamed sea bass.

Good to know
The restaurant is a small, intimate space so booking in advance is highly recommended. It also applies a rare but welcome 5% service charge rather than the standard 12.5%.
