HONG KONG – For dim sum lovers who crave an affordable feast without compromising on quality or views, a new flash sale from Harbour Plaza Metropolis’s acclaimed Chinese restaurant “Seaside Cloud” is turning heads. From July 17 to July 22, diners can indulge in a two-hour unlimited dim sum extravaganza starting at just HK$88 per person – a staggering 70% markdown from the regular price of HK$296.
Located on the second floor of Harbour Plaza Metropolis in Hung Hom, Seaside Cloud boasts a 210-degree panoramic vista of Victoria Harbour, setting the stage for what promises to be one of the city’s most value-packed dining experiences this summer. The flash promotion, available exclusively through online booking platform KKday, covers over 25 freshly steamed dim sum items, handmade rice rolls, deep-fried snacks, and desserts.
Unbeatable Pricing for Timeless Favorites
The offer is tiered by seating time, allowing guests to choose a session that best fits their schedule. For the afternoon tea slot at 2:00 PM, two guests can dine for just HK$176 – an average of HK$88 per head. Meanwhile, the lunch seating (available at 11:00 AM, 12:00 PM, or 1:00 PM) is priced at HK$108 per person for a two-person booking, bringing the total to HK$216. A premium lunch option at HK$128 per person is also available.
All prices exclude tea and service charges, but the savings remain remarkable. The regular per-person rate for the same buffet is HK$296, meaning diners save up to 70% during the afternoon slot and roughly 64% at lunch.
What’s on the Menu?
Seaside Cloud’s dim sum buffet features a rotating selection of both classic and inventive items. Among the must-try dishes are crab roe siu mai, crystal shrimp dumplings (har gow), barbecue pork buns with oyster sauce, and steamed rice rolls with mixed sauces – a nostalgic street-food favorite reimagined in fine-dining style. The menu also includes handmade rice rolls stuffed with chives and fresh shrimp, plus a variety of fried and baked treats.
U Food editors have particularly recommended the honey-glazed char siu rice rolls and the silky, freshly steamed dumplings, which are prepared on-site to ensure peak texture and flavor.
How to Secure Your Spot
Given the limited booking window – just six days starting July 17 – demand is expected to be fierce. Diners are advised to purchase their vouchers early via KKday’s official page, where the discounted rates are available for both lunch and afternoon tea sessions. The restaurant, which operates daily from 11:00 AM to 10:00 PM, can be reached at 2996 8459 for inquiries.
This flash sale arrives amid a broader trend of high-end Hong Kong hotels offering aggressive discounts to attract local diners. Earlier this month, Island Shangri-La’s Cafe TOO launched a “buy two, get two free” buffet deal, while chain restaurants like Yun Hai Hui and Xi Qing introduced a HK$98 Peking duck buffet. These moves reflect a hospitality sector keen to stimulate domestic spending amid shifting tourism patterns.
A Broader Impact on Hong Kong’s Dining Scene
For consumers, this wave of promotions represents a rare opportunity to enjoy premium culinary experiences at a fraction of the cost. Seaside Cloud’s offer, in particular, combines the allure of a waterfront setting with the comfort of unlimited dim sum – a combination that appeals to families, couples, and solo food explorers alike.
As the promotion period approaches, industry watchers will be keen to see whether other hotels follow suit with similar flash sales. For now, the message is clear: Hong Kong’s dim sum lovers should mark their calendars and prepare to click fast. At HK$88 a head, this is a deal that won’t last long.
