Yum Cha in Happy Valley

Happy Saturday! This is probably the most famous yum cha (飲茶) and dim sum place in Happy Valley. The restaurant is named 壹玖捌叁, or 1983, which is the year of birth of the founder and boss, Mr. Cheng.

It’s a popular place for family gatherings on weekends and its signature dim sum include the “colorful xiaolongbao dumplings”, “roasted pork pastry”, and “fried taro pastry”. Prices may be above the average in this (already expensive) neighbourhood but the food portion is reasonably big too.

At dinner time, the restaurant focuses on Canton and Shanghainese cuisine, apart from its passion for creative “Hong Kong fusion” cuisine, led by Chef Tang, who has more than 50 years experience in culinary business.

Boss Cheng also has a wide collection of wine, which he has imported from all over the world and shares one thing in common: the year of production, 1983 of course.
