Traditional Yum Cha in Chatswood

Authentic Cantonese Yum Cha at Fortune Place

Yum cha (飲茶) literally translates to “drink tea” in Cantonese.

​

But yum cha is about so much more than tea. It is a traditional built around the simple joy of sharing good food with the people you love.

​

For generations, families and friends have gathered around the table over baskets of steaming dim sum, delicate handmade dumplings and small dishes made to be passed around. The tea flows, conversations unfold and the table slowly fills with food to share.

​

At Fortune Place, we keep that tradition alive with traditional trolley-style yum cha in Chatswood. Watch the trolleys make their way through the restaurant, see the dishes as they pass and choose what catches your eye.

From handmade dumplings and silky steamed rice noodles to classic Cantonese favourites and something sweet to finish, every dish is made to be shared.

​

It’s this shared way of dining that has made yum cha such a beloved Cantonese tradition for generations.
