Shaun's Kitchen

Mitcham's hidden gem for Cantonese yum cha and dim sum, freshly made by a family team.

A tiny neighbourhood shopfront with three small tables. no frills, no flourish. where the focus is entirely on handmade Cantonese dim sum. The owners make the food in plain sight, which adds a warmth and transparency that larger yum cha restaurants can't replicate.

Freshly made in-house daily; frozen dim sum available for home cooking; hot food including cheong fun and congee on weekends only; cheong fun made to order in front of customers; family-owned operation.

Highly authentic Cantonese dim sum prepared by the owner. Hong Kong-based reviewers note it replicates food increasingly rare to find even in Hong Kong. The cheong fun draws Cantonese diaspora from across Melbourne.

Exceptional value. restaurant-quality dim sum at roughly half the price of a dedicated yum cha restaurant. Repeatedly cited as the best price-to-quality dim sum in Melbourne's eastern suburbs.
