About Hung Cheung Marrickville

Skip the trek to Chinatown—Hung Cheung delivers traditional, cart-wheeling yum cha right along Marrickville Road without the downtown waitlists. Dim sum purists line up before noon for the roving steam trolleys, claiming bamboo baskets of plump har gow, crispy fried scallop dumplings, and sauced rice noodle rolls the second they glide past. When a craving is not on the carts, the floor crew takes direct orders straight from the kitchen wok. By night, lazy Susans fill up for family-style Cantonese dinners with generous plates of salt-and-pepper pork ribs and special fried rice, accompanied by steaming pots of Chinese tea and a welcome discount for paying in cash.

  • Roving trolley carts: Heated pushcarts wheel through the dining room with regular frequency, backed by direct kitchen ordering on request.
  • Dim sum staples: Crowds prioritize the handmade har gow, fried scallop dumplings, and silky prawn cheung fun.
  • Family dinner feasts: Evenings center on generous Cantonese classics like salt-and-pepper pork ribs and special fried rice.
  • Cash payment discount: Diners pocket modest savings on the bill by paying in cash.

  • Circulating Trolleys and Custom Kitchen Dishes

    Alongside circulating carts, floor staff actively take requests for freshly made dishes directly from the kitchen.

    They brought out the yum cha trolleys. Haven't seen these for a while since covid hit and other yum cha places started introducing ordering from a menu.

    Great yum cha if you want to stay in the Inner West. Good selection of food and you can always request the dish you want if it hasn't come around.
