The news initially shocked many longtime customers, and fans of Lin Heung Tea House from around the world couldn’t help but feel regret. Established in 1918 and operated by the Yen family, the tea house has had three locations, all centered in Central, Hong Kong.
Lin Heung Tea House is famous for its “three pillars” of a perfect dim sum experience: fresh boiled water, high-quality tea, and authentic dim sum. Its signature dishes include lotus seed paste buns, BBQ pork buns, and supreme duck.
Lin Heung Tea House is a representative brand of traditional Cantonese dim sum culture. It still impresses guests with its cart service. If you’re not quick or decisive enough when ordering, you might miss out on your favorite dishes. Whether the tea house will reopen at a new location remains uncertain, as the management hasn’t ruled it out entirely. Fans of Lin Heung Tea House are encouraged to visit one last time and look forward to its possible return.
