Food hunting in Sheung Wan is not easy on Sundays, especially in late afternoon. Quite a number of restaurants and coffee shops are closed (except the bars). I was disappointed by the incorrect information about opening hours of a noodle shop. Made a booking, got there, it wasn’t open. Boo…So I had to look for an alternative for a late lunch/early dinner. Glad that I found Man Mo Dim Sum still opened at 4:30pm on a Sunday.Hidden among antique shops and stalls, you find Man Mo Dim Sum on Upper La
Hidden among antique shops and stalls, you find Man Mo Dim Sum on Upper Lascar Row with a chic interior design that uses Chinese eating utensils and furniture with a western touch, which surprisingly blend in well and give a good vibes. This applies to the dim sum served too. Man Mo Dim Sum is famous for reinventing traditional Chinese dim sum with western ingredients and cooking style.

For instance, these gourmet Foie Gras Xiao Long Baos are definitely a must try. The bite size xiao long bao (soup dumpling) allows you to enjoy the strong flavour of foie gras, together with the delicious soup/sauce inside the dumpling. Thickness of the dumplings were just right to the point - not too thick to be chewy, nor too thin that ruptures upon picking it up from the spoon with chopsticks. One bite, one xiao long bao, one mouthful of gourmet and contentment.

I didn’t expect much when I ordered these Five Spices Lamb Buns. But they appeared to be way better than I thought they could be! First of all, the bun was so fluffy and delicious! Second, the cheese went so well with the lamb and the bun. Third, the diced lamb was so flavoured and juicy. Last but not least, there was a plate of chili oil for you to top up the spiciness as much as you want.
The whole dining experience in Man Mo Dim Sum was so enjoyable. Lucky that I got in 10 minutes before last order. The food and vibes were so good! No wonder my colleague (an expat) strongly recommended it to me. I would definitely visit again, probably with some friends.
