Dim Sum Lunches in Hong Kong: Per-Basket, Set Menu and Per-Head Formats

The ordering format sets the price, the pace and how much say each guest has. Ask the host which formats are available for your group.

  • Per basket: guests order baskets in rounds from a menu sheet, and the bill is the total of baskets.
  • Set menu per table: a fixed run of baskets agreed in advance, with the table price quoted by the host.
  • Per head: one price per guest for a set menu, often used for larger family tables.
  • Tea service: ask if a tea charge per head applies and which teas are included.
  • Buffet-style lunch: groups that prefer to help themselves compare buffet restaurants in Hong Kong.

Dim Sum Group Bookings in Hong Kong: Sittings, Private Rooms and Typhoon Signals

A dim sum table for a group in Hong Kong is booked for a fixed sitting, not an open-ended afternoon. Weekend sittings are taken first, so enquire early.

  • Private room: larger family tables often take a private room, which can have a room fee or a minimum spend.
  • Round table: guests share baskets from a turntable, so everyone reaches each dish.
  • Typhoon signals: ask each host what happens to a booking if a No. 8 typhoon signal is raised on the day.
  • Room search: planners hosting a group in a closed room compare private room restaurants in Hong Kong.
