Lovely small authentic restaurant located at Marrickville, really can compete any yumcha restaurants in Chinatown. Tips: you have to order from the staffs because they have some amazing authentic dishes which would not be readily available, such as blood jelly(if you like), steamed rice noodle with deep fried dough, crispy yam dumpling, etc.

Yum cha is crazy and your squashed in. You wait for the food but when it arrives it’s is good. I have been twice but won’t go back in a hurry.

Great food yum cha or dinner. Place is old but food is the best Chinese I’ve had around town

Lots of mentions about the yum cha, so thought I’d ramble about the dinner service instead. Good points: * doesn’t get too busy at night so service is always great * San Choy bau is one of the best in the area! * the classic dishes are all done well(think beef and black bean, chicken ginger and shallots etc). Not so good points: * the dying fish/prawns in the fish tank :-/ * a touch pricey when you compare it to other local Chinese restaurants. All in all, good points outweigh the bad and I’ll no doubt be back in the couple of weeks!

This is definitely the best yum cha I’ve had in Sydney. The mango pancakes are just… not matched anywhere else. Trust me I’ve tried. The food comes out and is fresh, and from the turn over and waiting for tables of patrons, it means that if you want to get in before the mango pancakes run out — then earlier is better. It’s also one of our favourite yum cha breakfast places. Sometimes after a big night you have to recover on a Sunday! It’s win all around.

Best Ym Cha in Sydney area, just beware that weekends you will be lining up outside on a ticket number system! Everything is fresh and healthy and hot to the table. Seating is cramped, usual groups of families with hipsters and a few inner west bogland who are usually trying to impress their friends with a ‘cultural’ meal… They usually ByO the VB to the table at 9:30am… Not that booze and Boullion shouldn’t mix at 9:30… Calamari. Top Hit. Always!

Not as cheap as the Cabramatta yum cha places but less crowded and hectic and still good value and quality.

An enormous selection for Yum-Cha at inexpensive prices, Hung Cheung has been a stayer in Marrickville and always attracts a crowd. You’ll want to enjoy fried wontons and all other things fried. The mango pancakes filled with cream and mango are light and tasty but don’t expect complex flavours here. Its basic good yum-cha.

Our household has our favourite places to do our Yum Cha including Marigold, Sea Treasure and Hung Cheung in Marrickville. Hung Cheung as with most Yum Cha might require a bit of a wait as it’s teeming with business however it’s worth it and at almost half the price of the other Yum Cha restaurants and the efficiency of service is a force to be reckoned with. Squeak…Squeak… Squeak that’s the white noise in Heung Cheung as all the trolleys roll past. Paper lanterns hang from bright pink walls all the garish of cheap bling. We wait like animals crouching for prey and then we hit. Prawn dumplings, Yeow Chee, Sumei, Chinese broccoli, pork dumplings and custard tarts for the finale. Feel lucky to be part of a city that has so much diversity in cuisine. Verdict: For two people 8 dishes were $ 37.50, fantastic service and wonderful food.
