A beloved local dim sum chain has just launched a flash promotion that’s turning heads across the city. The Steam Hut is offering a limited-time 50% off set meal, with per-person prices starting at just HK$60 for a feast that includes classic shrimp dumplings, pork siu mai, steamed beef rice with a runny egg, and a soothing pear-and-herb dessert soup.
The deal, officially called the “Special Dim Sum and Soup Duo Set,” is available at two of The Steam Hut’s locations—Tsuen Wan and Sha Tin Shek Mun—and runs from April 23 to April 29 for purchase, with redemptions valid from April 24 through June 30. What makes this offer particularly attractive is that the price already includes the 10% service charge and tea fee, meaning diners won’t face any hidden costs. Even Mother’s Day and Labour Day holidays fall within the dining period, making it a convenient option for family gatherings.
What’s on the Menu?
The 50% off duo set is designed for two people and includes:
- Choice of one steamed rice dish (for two): either the rich, creamy runny egg beef rice or the seabream fillet with golden pork patty rice
- One double-serving of aged tangerine peel, Sichuan fritillaria, and rock sugar stewed pear – a classic Cantonese dessert known for its throat-soothing properties
- Individual portions of crystal shrimp dumplings (har gow), crab roe siu mai, and cloud marble sesame buns
For those craving variety, The Steam Hut is also offering a 32% off “Top Ten Signature Dim Sum Set” at just HK$88 per person. This set features ten different items, including:
- Crystal shrimp dumplings
- Crab roe siu mai
- Shrimp and vegetable dumplings
- Matcha lava barbecue pork buns
- Cloud marble sesame buns
- Chiu Chow-style dumplings
- Salted water chestnut dumplings
- Garlic shrimp spring rolls
- Red bean and osmanthus cake with wolfberries
- Rose bean paste pan-fried sesame cake
Both deals are available exclusively through online booking platform KKday, with sales starting at 3:00 PM on April 23. Quantities are limited, and the promotion ends when supplies run out.
Why This Matters for Hong Kong Diners
In a city where dining out can quickly become expensive, especially in chain restaurants, this flash sale offers genuine value. According to recent consumer trends, Hong Kongers are increasingly seeking out promotional deals amid rising living costs. The Steam Hut’s decision to bundle service charges and tea fees into the price also removes a common point of frustration for diners.
“It’s rare to find a set meal under $100 that includes both service charge and tea,” said one regular diner on social media. “This is a real win for families.”
Industry observers note that such aggressive pricing could signal a broader trend among local chains competing for foot traffic. With Mother’s Day and Labour Day both falling within the redemption period, The Steam Hut appears to be betting on volume rather than margin.
Practical Tips for Diners
- Book early: The sale starts at 3 PM on April 23. Set a reminder, as supplies are expected to run out quickly.
- Check the fine print: The offer is only valid at the Tsuen Wan (Plaza 88) and Sha Tin Shek Mun (Kings Wing Plaza) branches.
- Bring the family: The duo set works well for two, but the 10-item signature set at $88 per person is ideal for larger groups who want to sample a wider range.
- Consider timing: Both branches have extended weekend hours, with the Tsuen Wan location opening as early as 9 AM on weekends.
What’s Next?
As Hong Kong’s food scene continues to evolve, promotions like these are becoming a critical tool for chains to maintain relevance. For diners, the message is clear: keep an eye on flash sales, and don’t hesitate to act fast. Whether you’re a dim sum purist or an adventurous eater, this deal offers an affordable entry point into one of Hong Kong’s most cherished culinary traditions.
