Tycoons, judges and bankers among patrons.
(From South China Morning Post)
Byline: Alex Lo and Patsy Moy
The Luk Yu Tea House hitman could not have chosen a more conspicuous place to carry out the killing.
The murder is guaranteed to be reported around the world because the SAR's most famous teahouse is profiled in virtually all the tourist literature about Hong Kong, and comes highly recommended by the Tourism Board.
Tycoon Henry Fok Yin-tung and Court of Final Appeal Judge Henry Litton are said to be among its patrons.
It is well known that two tables are reserved at all times - one for top lawyers and judges, and another for senior executives of the Hang Seng Bank.
Early each morning, the culinary institution is visited by chauffeur-driven patrons, some carrying their pet birds in cages. Curious tourists, looking embarrassed and lost at what food items to order, usually receive no helpful suggestions and are generally ignored by the waiters.
