How we read reviews →Exhibition Street's grand yum cha hall for trolley dim sum, live seafood and standout Peking duck.
Grand, dressed-up dining room near Chinatown with live seafood tanks and multiple floors; feels formal and bustling during yum cha sessions, though some tables sit under dim, moody lighting.
Live seafood tanks with lobster and crab at the entrance, traditional trolley yum cha alongside a la carte ordering, private dining rooms, and a lift located inside the kitchen.
Reviewers describe traditional Cantonese-style trolley yum cha and a proper Peking duck program, though several felt the strict time-limited sessions undercut the usual leisurely yum cha experience.
Reviewers are split. some call the quality worth the premium given the live seafood and truffle dishes, while many others say $40-plus fried rice and $250-300 yum cha bills for three feel overpriced.
