Private Events
& CATERING
We are passionate specialists in Dim Sum. Our training began in London, where some of the best Dim Sum restaurants in Europe can be found, and ended in Singapore, the current nucleus of this ancient culinary culture, along side Hong Kong.
As we toured Asia, gastronomy and more specifically Dim Sum was always the main focus of our travels. We then chose to reveal this culinary treasure to Brasil where we opened the first Dim Sum bar there, while simultaneously organising events in Brasil, between Spain and Portugal.
In 2020, we moved to Lisbon. Our new adventure began with catering for private events and residencies in various renown places. We decided to open our first locale, Aura Dim Sum Lab, to respond to the high demand we were met with.
This space soon proved to be too small to meet the wishes of our ever growing and loyal clientele which brought us to where we are now in Alfama. We are proud to have become in so little time a culinary reference in Lisbon when it comes to the art of making Dim Sum.
We have catered private dinners in Trancoso, Marbella, Madrid and Lisbon. Sharing our passion and love for Dim Sum is at the heart of everything we do. Celebrating your event with us will guarantee you a unique gourmet experience that is personalised to meet your needs and wishes. Whether it’s a brunch, lunch, cocktail party or dinner, a private or corporate event, we tailor our menu to your preferences.
You can privatize our venue or opt for one of your own. Choosing Aura Dim Sum will not only ensure an original culinary exploration of Asian cuisine but also a high-end quality product and professional service. We believe in creating moments that leave a lasting impression.
