Quick info
About 水哥（Classic HK Kitchen)
水哥（Classic HK Kitchen) is a Chinese restaurant on Bristol Rd in Birmingham, set inside the Taste of Orient Chinese supermarket. The dim sum is handmade fresh, with siu mai, cheung fun, and congee among the recurring items, alongside egg tarts and char siu puffs. The menu runs to 148 dishes, giving room to move beyond the dim sum counter. Seating is available for eating in, and the kitchen also handles takeaway and delivery for those eating off site. Service often runs from a single person at the counter, so ordering is direct rather than table-served. It operates on a walk-in basis with no booking. It opens Monday to Sunday, closed on Wednesdays. Free parking sits at the front of the store, making it straightforward to stop in alongside a supermarket visit.

Customer Review Summary
Handmade dim sum draws the steadiest praise here, with reviewers repeatedly singling out the siu mai as stuffed and standout, alongside cheung fun and pork puffs described as freshly made in house. Congee also earns mention, with one reviewer calling the congee with Chinese yam heart-warming and reminiscent of home, and another recommending the char siu puffs and sweetheart cake. Beyond dim sum, rice dishes get called out for size and value, including a Chencun rice noodles with pork ribs at £7.5 and a curry brisket beef rice at £10 that left enough for another meal. Several describe portions as large and prices as reasonable, and the owner or chef is repeatedly described as fast, chatty and friendly despite sometimes running the counter alone. One reviewer notes the spot sits inside a Chinese supermarket called Taste of Orient, tucked near the back, and passes along a tip about free parking out front and being mindful of nearby residential streets when parking further out.
