On September 12 (12:30pm - 2:30pm), learn “The Art of Pu-Er” at a seminar  with Tea Sommelier  Kelvin Ng at InterContinental Hong Kong's 2-Michelin star Yan Toh Heen.

The class is HK$888+ 10% service per person, inclusive of tea-pairing with Chef Lau Yiu Fai's signature dim sum and a selection of Yan Toh Heen's homemade moon cakes.

With a wealth of experience pairing Chinese tea with Cantonese cuisine, Yan Toh Heen's Tea Sommelier Kelvin Ng (the first tea sommelier in Hong Kong),  will share his in-depth knowledge of Pu Er, which is considered the best tea to pair with  dim sum and moon cakes.

The Dim Sum selection includes Yan Toh Heen Superior Dumplings:  Steamed Scallop with Black Truffles and Vegetables Dumpling, Steamed Lobster Dumpling with Bird's Nest and Gold Leaf and Steamed King Crab Leg Dumpling with Green Vegetables
