Golden Sands

Level 2 of Hurstville Times Plaza holds a serious trump card for the lunch-hour rush. Dim sum devotees hit this expansive dining room for lightning-fast, highly affordable weekday yum cha. Steaming bamboo baskets landing on the table in minutes—zero sluggish service, maximum satisfaction. The daytime crowd frequently points to the rotating dim sum specials and hard-to-find siu mei plates like perfectly lacquered roast goose. Plump spinach prawn dumplings packed tightly into delicate, translucent wrappers. Beef balls rich with textured mix-ins. But the ultimate flex? The pork and century egg congee—slow-simmered, wildly comforting, flawlessly creamy. Add a slick of their surprisingly punchy house chili sauce, pour a cup of hot tea, and you’re feasting for around twenty-five bucks. A fast-paced, high-value dim sum fix.
