Top choice in Xiamen


If you eat out just once in Xiamen, join the queues for this Cantonese culinary masterclass, and then stack up the exquisite dim sum dishes like egg buns, roasted pigeon and pork dumplings. Catch a taxi here: the driver will know where it is. It also has a branch 200m north of Lundu ferry terminal.

Expect to wait 45 minutes on Saturday and Sunday between 11am and 3pm.
