Chef Lucas Sin is standing on the streets of Kennedy Town at 3 A.M. for an extremely valid reason-Sun Hing, one of Hong Kong’s last operating late night dim sum restaurants, is just opening for business. Join Lucas as he tries a variety of expertly steamed buns, from luxurious and silky custard buns to pork and shrimp filled siu mai-and everything in between.

3:00 You might wonder why he's tapping on the table while the tea is pouring. Having lived in Hong Kong, it's the way they thank the person pouring the tea for them. You pour the tea for your elders / friends before you pour for yourself.

An interesting fact about this place is that its near the University of Hong Kong! Student dormitories normally have hall activities until late night so its a tradition for them to have morning tea “早茶” afterwards! Most HKU students probably has eaten here before 😂
