What To Expect
Sheung Wan
Come and experience the elegant, exotic and hip, the old neighbourhood of Sheung Wan, it is an eclectic blend of shopping experiences dominated by traditional Chinese beliefs and businesses. The first stop of the food tour will take you to an authentic decades-old dim sum teahouse, a recipient of Michelin Guide for many years until 2020. Don't let its modest interior fool you, the place is always packed with locals. Find yourself transported back to a bygone era as you sample authentic and tasty dumplings that are served out of the traditional dim sum trolley. You will not leave unsatisfied.
Seafood Street
Dried seafood is a common ingredient in Chinese cooking and traditional tonics, and in Hong Kong, this trade is clustered around a section of Des Voeux Road West in Sheung Wan, commonly known as Dried Seafood Street. Come explore and learn about the medicinal properties of the dried seafood used in soups and visit a Chinese medicine shop originating from 1940s.

5.00We had a wonderful time with Alex. He was early and spoke English well. He really educated us on both the places we ate at and the history of the food. He was knowledgeable in many of the ingredients used in Chinese herbal medicine and the use of all the dried fish found in the shops near the start of our tour. He educated us on the neighborhoods we walked through and the pace of the tour was perfect for our small group. We did cover a lot of ground and got a wealth of information. He was the perfect host. You can’t go wrong with Alex!
