The baked BBQ pork buns are the thing, yeah? Everything else is kinda… background noise. Honestly, at that place in Hong Kong, focus on their signature buns and maybe a couple of other small plates. Don't try to go full-on dim sum feast; you'll just be disappointed. It's a bun-centric experience, and that's ok.

Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
