It’s no secret that Vancouver has a top-notch dim sum scene, and one of the top purveyors just opened a new restaurant concept in the Hastings-Sunrise neighbourhood.

Kam Wai Dim Sum — the dim sum spot that first opened in 1991 — just opened its second location, called Kam Wai Legacy, on Saturday, Feb. 28. Here, the brand is expanding on what people love from its original outpost with plenty of tasty options for folks to enjoy in-store or to take home.

You’ll be able to sit down and enjoy its selection of dim sum, as well as items like wonton noodle soup, congee, and more. Plus, this location offers Kam Wai’s signature dim sum to prepare at home, as well as dishware and other merchandise.

“We are delighted, overwhelmed and so grateful for the generous and enthusiastic response to today’s Grand Opening of our new store, Kam Wai Legacy,” shared the restaurant. “This has been the result of the dreams, hard work, long days, longer nights, physical and emotional investment from so many people, and we are forever grateful for their contributions.”

The new store is open Thursday to Monday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
