Hong Kong's Legendary Late Night Dim Sum Spot | Street Food Tour with Lucas Sin | Bon Appétit

Ойын-сауық

Chef Lucas Sin is standing on the streets of Kennedy Town at 3 A.M. for an extremely valid reason-Sun Hing, one of Hong Kong’s last operating late night dim sum restaurants, is just opening for business. Join Lucas as he tries a variety of expertly steamed buns, from luxurious and silky custard buns to pork and shrimp filled siu mai-and everything in between.
