I grew up in Wenzhou, a city known for its hardworking people and entrepreneurial spirit. My parents owned their own business, so from an early age I learned what it means to work hard, be independent, and build something of your own.

I have been living in Germany since 2010. Together with my two sisters, we ran a restaurant for many years, working side by side and guided by the values that have shaped us since childhood.

Before that, my family and I lived in the Netherlands for many years. Thanks to the large Cantonese community there, I discovered my love for Dim Sum. After moving to Germany, I often missed this particular style of Dim Sum.

Food has always been an important part of my life. Over time, I developed the desire to create a place that brings together everything I personally love. My husband specializes in Cantonese and Sichuan cuisine, so for us it felt only natural to combine these different culinary traditions.

San Jie Mei is now my own chapter. It reflects my background, my experiences, and the dishes I love. No complicated concepts. Just honest food, prepared with care and meant to be shared.
