Hen Lin has made a reputation for itself in the fast food sector by satisfying the demanding tastes of the Filipino people with authentic, surprisingly affordable Chinese dim sum.

In the past, dine-in guests could only get dim sum in Chinese restaurants, and they were sold individually. Despite this preconception, Hen Lin went against the grain and found potential in takeout. Customers flocked to Hen Lin’s tiny SM Makati premises, raving about the original flavor of their dim sum and, in particular, the chili sauce, which has since become a favorite side dish to go with Hen Lin’s siomai.

Hen Lin became a regular at most of the city’s biggest malls when that happened. Robinsons Galleria, Ayala Center, and The Landmark Center are all great places to find a Hen Lin store. Because of how common Hen Lin is, you can also find it in most other shopping centers.

Hen Lin History

“A deep appreciation for Chinese food played a significant role in the birth of Hen Lin,” “In the 1970s when a hearty plate of siopao and mami could be yours for just P1.00, the proprietors recognized the potential profits in serving Chinese food. It wasn’t until 1983, nevertheless, that the proprietors decided to get into the industry for themselves, hoping to increase their income.

Hen Lin now has over a hundred outlets strategically placed in malls and important cities, expanding from its original location in BF Homes, Paranaque. Even in tiny towns, you may find Hen Lin kiosks or dine-in locations across the metropolis.

Hen Lin was more than a young entrepreneur playing the fast food novelty game. They knew that perfecting the art of Chinese cuisine was crucial to their success. So they hired a Hong Kong chef, whose skill was crucial in making all of Hen Lin’s many treats taste like real China. They continued to educate themselves by studying dim sum-producing techniques and trying out different recipes in their dogged pursuit of that enigmatic Chinese flavor that customers would come to desire.

With P30,000 in money and a firm belief that they had achieved mixed perfection, the couple finally opened their first store in Paranaque in 1983. Hen Lin had its fair share of issues, like any other corporation. To begin with, they were forced to utilize the resources that were available to them. They had very little dim sum available at that moment. While supervising manufacturing, the parents-to-be studied growth while their children and several houses provided the necessary labor.
