Fook Lam Moon (Wan Chai)

With 70+ years of glorious history, Fook Lam Moon is held dear by its faithful regulars as an institution in classic Cantonese cuisine. A stable kitchen team ensures the food is consistently good, be it exquisite dim sum or other traditional offerings. Standouts such as live seafood cooked various ways, deep-fried crispy chicken, baked stuffed crab shell, and gourmet soup in whole winter melon, are true delights. Some dishes need pre-ordering.
