Had dim sum brunch at Red Star Restaurant (54 Chin Swee Road, #07-23). This is among my top choices for dim sum in Singapore. Dim sum is still served off push-carts in the traditional way. Food is delicious, especially the steamed fish head with black bean sauce. Let down your hair and forget all your manners here at Red Star. You have to chase after all those carts for the dim sum items you like, for chances are they either miss passing by your table, or by the time the carts reach you, the items you want are all gone.
They start serving dim sum as early as 7am, and is consistently crowded till after lunch, with the peak around 11am-12nn. The customer flow is fast, so you seldom have to wait for more than 15 minutes for a table. But even if you have to wait a little longer, it is well worth it. The best thing about this place is the value it provides. Price is very reasonable and food quality is great!
