RAGS to riches and zero to hero stories are the stuff that legends are made of. Like the story of a hole-in-the-wall dim sum eatery in Mongkok earning a Michelin star in its first year of operations.

It bills itself as “Hong Kong’s most famous Michelin star dim sum restaurant” and others have billed it “the cheapest Michelin starred restaurant in the world.”
