About Sun Ming Hurstville Restaurant

A Hurstville staple for unpretentious Hong Kong comfort, Sun Ming serves generous Cantonese cafe staples alongside fresh tank seafood. Quick-turnaround service keeps the crowded dining room moving fast. Solo lunchers turn to steaming bowls of century egg and pork congee, hefty plates of beef stir-fried rice noodles, or afternoon tea sets with thick French toast. For evening group feasts, tables fill with sizzling silken tofu, roasted duck, and live mud crab or pipis tossed over vermicelli in XO sauce—washed down with a glass of Hong Kong milk tea.

  • Cha Chaan Teng Classics: Fast-moving tables turn around hearty comfort staples like century egg and pork congee, beef chow fun, and thick French toast afternoon sets.
  • Live Tank Seafood & Feasts: Platters of sizzling silken tofu, roast meats, and pre-ordered mud crab or pipis on vermicelli anchor large group dinners.
  • Quick Service & Sizable Portions: Dishes arrive in substantial portions at fair prices, delivered with brisk, no-nonsense service that keeps pace with lunch and dinner crowds.

  • Hearty Congee and Comfort Bowls

    Warm bowls of congee, fish porridge, and stir-fried rice noodles offer dependable satisfaction for solo dining and midday stops.

    Personally strongly recommend the 皮蛋瘦肉粥 (century egg and pork congee) - this is a massive bowl filled with meat and egg and extremely yummy and good value.

Before you head over

Practical tips for seating, group sizes, and pre-ordering signature dishes.

  • Seating and Group Capacity

    Table arrangements on the ground floor cater to two up to six people, though a more spacious second floor is available upstairs.

  • Pre-Order Signature Seafood

    Signature live seafood such as the mud crab vermicelli claypot can take longer or require planning, so pre-ordering helps ensure quick preparation.

  • Time Your Visit Around Set Menus

    Lunch and afternoon tea sets offer great value with complimentary soup and drinks like milk tea, but remember to eat baked toast while hot so it stays fresh.
