Hong Kong diners can now add a generous portion of classic dried scallop and seafood winter melon soup for just HK$1 when ordering selected signature dishes at Tao Heung restaurants, with a rotating three-course seafood set also available for HK$198.
As summer temperatures soar, the popular chain has introduced a limited-time evening promotion designed to help customers beat the heat while enjoying substantial savings. The offer runs from now until further notice, available for dine-in only during the 5:00 PM to 8:30 PM evening window across 20 participating outlets island-wide.
Beat the Heat with a $1 Winter Melon Soup
Winter melon soup has long been a staple of Cantonese summer cuisine, prized for its cooling and detoxifying properties. Tao Heung’s “Classic Dried Scallop and Seafood Winter Melon Bowl” (served in a standard portion) is typically a premium item, but the chain is now offering it for a nominal HK$1 as an add-on.
To unlock this deal, customers need to order one of three specially designated “Headline Appetizers” (頭牌小菜) during the evening dining period. The selection includes popular seafood and roasted meat options, ensuring broad appeal for different palates. While the specific appetizers rotate, the promotion guarantees that any diner choosing from this curated list can immediately access the bargain-priced soup.
A Rotating Seafood Set for $198
Alongside the soup promotion, Tao Heung presents a value-priced dinner set for HK$198 (originally HK$288). Each set comprises an appetizer, a seafood main course, and a second seafood dish, with the menu changing daily to offer variety for repeat customers.
The weekly lineup includes:
- Monday: Crispy tofu appetizer, steamed grouper with old-style soy sauce, and scallion oil chicken
- Tuesday: Chilled cucumber appetizer, steamed blue-spotted grouper, and curry beef tendon pot
- Wednesday: Sliced abalone and贵妃耳 appetizer, steamed东星斑 (coral grouper), and sizzling abalone tofu pot

For an additional HK$28, diners can add a nourishing steamed soup (汽鍋湯), choosing between winter melon and lotus seed with螺头 soup or matsutake mushroom with abalone soup.

A Strategic Summer Move

By combining a deeply discounted traditional soup with an affordable seafood set, Tao Heung aims to attract both families seeking value and younger diners exploring classic Cantonese flavors.
For those looking to make the most of the offer, arriving early in the evening window is advisable, as popular items may sell out. The rotating daily menu also encourages repeat visits, allowing regulars to sample different seafood preparations across the week.
Whether you are craving a cooling winter melon soup on a hot summer night or a full seafood spread without breaking the bank, Tao Heung’s latest campaign offers a compelling reason to gather friends and family around the dinner table.
