Duen Kee Restaurant

New Territories


Close to the fields, you can have dim sum under one of the parasols on the ground floor of this popular no-frills yum-cha joint. But the true attraction lies upstairs where older villagers show off their caged birds while sipping tea. The home-grown watercress served blanched with oyster sauce is the signature vegetable.
