The story

Dim Sum Haus in Hamburg serves authentic Cantonese cooking since 1964

Roots in the Cantonese kitchen

Dim Sum Haus has served authentic Chinese cuisine in Hamburg since 1964. The establishment now operates under third generation management, maintaining recipes that mirror traditional preparations from Guangdong and Hong Kong. Chefs still follow those exact methods to steam dumplings and braise meats. This continuity keeps the kitchen grounded in techniques that local Chinese communities recognize instantly.

Signature plates and take home boxes

Guests frequently order the crispy pork belly, where the skin crisps to a shattering texture before melting into tender fat. The kitchen also marinates Iberico pork using a historic Cantonese barbecue recipe, leaving the meat ready for simple oven roasting at home. Visitors can pack these exact dishes into vacuum sealed containers with dry ice. The bamboo steamer baskets arrive with four distinct dumpling varieties and dipping sauces for immediate reheating.

Longstanding presence and quiet acclaim

The rooms along Kirchenallee have welcomed neighbors for over sixty years. Local residents and visiting guests share tables near the entrance throughout dinner service. Recent Schlemmer Atlas recognition highlights how the Chinese kitchen satisfies discerning native palates. The accolade underscores a focus on consistent technique over loud theatrics.
