A historic Hong Kong teahouse dating back to the 1920s has transformed into an unlikely dance floor. The "Dim Sum Rave" at Lin Heung Lau blends traditional Cantonese dumplings with electronic music and a spinning disco ball, aiming to attract a younger Gen Z crowd. Facing financial struggles and the closure of its 99-year-old branch, the owner says the monthly event is a bid to keep cultural traditions alive—one beat drop at a time.
