He came over from Hong Kong during the 1997 era when UK ceded the city back to China. He worked in a few top Cantonese restaurants here, earned his stripes specialising in dim sum and then Mr Chu Shu Kei decided to open a humble dim sum stall in Chinatown. Even more humbly, he only offers six items, six very moreish items. From the crunchy and freshness of the har gao, the hand-chopped minced pork in his siu mai, softly resilient prawn and cha siew cheong fun rolls, the fluffy soft and moist inside cha siew pau to the phoenix claws (puffy and soft with an initially fried skin) … every item is one you must try. We kid you not. He does not even open till he; his wife and his son are ready for the day even as a crowd patiently and eagerly await the shutters to fully open.
