Hong Kong's iconic Lin Heung Tea House (Lin Heung Lau) opens its first-ever branch outside Central, bringing its beloved pushcart dim sum service to the bustling hub of Tsim Sha Tsui (TST).

The new TST branch occupies a 9,000sq ft space across two floors along Kimberley Road in the Cheung Lee Commercial Building (next to the steep slope that leads to Knustford Terrace – the 'LKF' of Kowloon) and will operate around the clock – nothing like a bit of midnight dim sum to soak up the alcohol.

The new Tsim Sha Tsui branch is also staying true to its heritage by offering traditional teaware, classic dim sum items, dim sum trolleys, and other features that make this place the legendary establishment that we all know and love.

After its closure in 2022, the Wellington Street flagship reopened under new management in April 2024. The return of veteran staff, signature dim sum cart service, and the added new element of bubble tea and hand-shaken drinks were welcomed with open arms by both patrons and curious new diners alike. For this new location, Lin Heung Lau is switching things up by hosting a live DJ station where classic tunes will be spun on dedicated 'nostalgic nights'.
