Lai Wah Heen is located inside the Metropolitan Hotel behind City Hall. The exquisitely crafted dishes will make you understand what 'fantastiche' tastes like. Alongside the traditional standards, specialty dishes include abalone & shrimp mousse coiled with fine Taiwanese vermicelli and wok-seared crepe with spicy smoked salmon.

Lai Wah Heen is super awesome, but it's not quite the average dim sum place. You should mention that the majority of dim sum regulars don't usually go anywhere this expensive. Everyone who does dim sum knows Lai Wah Heen, but rarely goes because it does happen to be extremely expensive in comparison to the average dim sum restaurant. This more of a once a year dining out experience unless you always expect to eat with a silver spoon. I do have to admit however, it is always a memorable experience when going. Remember to dress appropriately at Lai Wah Heen, it is sort of an unwritten rule.
