Shu Zhai

What better way to start a Sunday than Dim Sum and the papers, and if you can find somewhere to park, Shu Zhai in Stanley has some of the best.

The restaurant is classically fitted out with dark wooden furniture and panels with stark walls and floors - it makes for a cool retreat from the fierce seaside sun. We had large plump Har Gao, Crispy prawn wontons and some spring rolls, fluffy Char Sui Bao and flavoursome steamed dumplings stuffed with garlic, greens and crab. This was topped off with fried rice with ginger and lashings of tea.

Recommended - freshly made and well executed Dim Sum is in a different league to the mass produced trolley type - It's up there with my favourite Dim Sum joint. They also have a great looking full menu - I keep meaning to try it for dinner one weekend.
