Sing NYC

Sing Cha Chaan Teng is serving Chinese food plus tea, Hong Kong style, in Greenwich Village, New York. It was in 1997 that Britain handed Hong Kong over to the Chinese after 156 years of colonial rule. Even before that, Hong Kong chefs flooded into NYC and began helming big-ticket Cantonese seafood spots. But smaller Hong Kong cafes known as cha chaan tengs also appeared, selling the quirky lunch counter cuisine of the former colony. Our unique menu included Cantonese, British, Southeast Asian, Japanese, and Portuguese elements — with an emphasis on breakfasts, hot beverages, and dim sum.
