Tim Ho Wan is a dim sum restaurant known as 'the world's most affordable Michelin starred restaurant', after the tiny Hong Kong restaurant was awarded in 2009.

The popular Melbourne branch is situated in a bright and bustling space on Bourke Street with a seating capacity for 105 diners.

Translated from ‘add good luck’, Tim Ho Wan makes dim sum to order from quality ingredients. Nothing is made overnight or frozen here.

Try the signature BBQ pork bun and prawn dumplings. Finish with steamed egg cake.
