Dim Sum, Old Hong Kong, Classic, Tea

It’s all about tradition here. Firstly, the room, which is set over two levels, cleverly evokes the spirit of a 1920s Shanghainese dining room thanks to its rugs, teak floors and stained glass windows.

Given that Spring Moon has plenty of regulars who order without even consulting the menu, they could easily rest on their laurels. But Trento is keen to go forward: “We leave the [creation of] new dishes to the chef, and develop and test as a team.” These creations first appear in special tea-pairing menus, as well as at the exclusive chef’s table dinners held in the dim sum kitchen.
