This was my first dim sum experience and I don’t think it will ever be topped! William Chan, Cuisine Cuisine’s manager went above and beyond to make sure my visit to his restaurant was memorable. I didn’t taste the food, I experienced it. I not only learned about every dish but I learned which wines complimented each course. I can’t express how amazing this experience was! This Italian girl become a lover of dim sum and more!

I loved everything and my absolute favorite was the BBQ. William also took the time to tell me how to eat everything if I was confused. I even learned how to cut food with chopsticks. Cuisine Cuisine has a creative dim sum a la carte menu, as well as lunch and dinner set menus,  it changes according to the seasonality respecting unique taste and freshness of the ingredients.

Cuisine Cuisine is a must-do in the great city of Hong Kong! If you go, please tell William I said hello.
