Wanhoi Yamch'a 云海小聚 at SkyAvenue
Location: Lot SA - T2 - 7 & 8 & 9, Genting Highlands, 69000 Genting Highlands, Pahang, Malaysia
Floor 1 · SkyAvenue
Wanhoi Yamch'a at SkyAvenue offers a modern take on the traditional yum cha (dim sum) experience, serving an array of delicate steamed and fried dim sum alongside Chinese small plates and hot dishes. The name "Wanhoi" (云海) evokes the sea of clouds that blankets Genting Highlands, while "Yamch'a" references the Cantonese tradition of drinking tea and sharing small dishes, a fitting concept for a mountain resort where the cool climate makes warm, shared dining especially appealing.
The menu features classic dim sum items such as har gow, siu mai, char siu bao, and cheong fun, alongside contemporary interpretations and rice and noodle dishes for those seeking a more substantial meal. The restaurant's stylish interior and tea-focused beverage programme create a refined yet relaxed dining atmosphere that works equally well for leisurely brunches and quick bites.
For dim sum above the sea of clouds, Wanhoi Yamch'a steams, pours, and satisfies. It is yum cha, elevated, in every sense.
