The Sham Shui Po-based cha chaan teng began operating in March 2020 and was heavily praised by many netizens for its generosity. Aside from regularly giving out free boxed meals, canned goods, and packaged food products to senior citizens on the first and 15th day of each lunar month, Ki Lung Restaurant also did its part for Sham Shui Po’s community by distributing nutritious meals for free to nearby childcare community centres.
