Walk into Happy Gathering and you'll immediately get why this spot pulls in over a thousand reviews. The dining room's got that lived-in comfort you want from a neighbourhood Chinese—no pretension, just tables of families and groups demolishing dim sum trolleys and sharing plates like it's what they were born to do. You're in Grangetown territory here, and this restaurant absolutely belongs to the fabric of the area. The kitchen takes Cantonese cooking seriously: roasted meats glistening in the window, hand-pulled noodles, and dim sum that arrives steaming from the kitchen rather than sitting under heat lamps.
