If you missed the chance to join the dim sum rave that rocked the historic Lin Heung Lau teahouse last weekend, then here’s your final chance to visit and vibe in this restaurant after dark. 

After just under a century of operating from its perch on the corner of Aberdeen and Wellington Streets, this teahouse is taking its dim sum steamers to a new home on Des Voeux Road Central very soon. We’re sure the food will be just as tasty after the move, but their Central location is undoubtedly iconic to generations of Hong Kong diners, and deserves one last visit to commemorate the good times.

On their final weekend of business, Lin Heung Lau is holding an official farewell party to “share one last beautiful moment, not as a full stop, but as a warm comma”. Keeping with the Hong Kong history of this restaurant, the music will mostly be retro Cantopop and we’re very excited to scream out Cantonese bangers on the dancefloor. DJs Yin, Tak, Bobo, Etta, Ari, and KT will be behind the decks for a full night of tunes.

Early-bird tickets have already sold out immediately, but general admission tickets are still available for $680. This includes entry, one drink, and one steamer of dim sum, or one plate of roast meats. Bid this historic business goodbye in style – we’ll see you under the birdcages on May 9!
