Red Star Restaurant

29 Nov’25, Sat🌦️
📍Red Star Restaurant 紅星酒家 (Chin Swee Rd, SG)
- Dim Sum 港式點心🥟

Average dim sum I would say, but for 100% for the old school push cart vibes…

Rejoice! We woke up bright and early to soak in the buzz at this iconic, old-school gem @RedStar_sg and celebrate SG60 National Day the best way we know how — with piping hot dim sum rolled out on traditional trolleys by friendly staff. 🥢
From siew mai and century egg porridge to roast suckling pig {yes, served as dim sum — only at Red Star 😍} every bite brought back many nostalgic memories and pure joy.
Even sweeter? We used our #SG60vouchers for the meal! 🎉 Happy 60th, Singapore! 🇸🇬❤️

Old School Restaurant in Singapore with Pushcarte Dim Sum

Location: Red Star Restaurant, 54 Chin Swee Rd, #07-23, Singapore 160054

Get teleported to Hong Kong when you visit Red Star Restaurant. Enjoy the 1980s push cart dim sum dining experience, which is uncommon nowadays.

The food quality of the dim sum items was somewhat inconsistent. There were some hits and misses. However, the roasted duck ($16 for half) is unexpectedly delicious - crispy skin on the tender and moist meat that has almost no gamey taste. It was so good that we had to request a bowl of white rice. 😘

Ultimately, the fun was trying to catch the push cart auntie's attention or learn to "zap sang" (Cantonese term) - if she doesn't come to you, just go to her and get your dim sum! 🤣

Satisfied with the deep fried items, it’s crispy outside and juicy on the inside. Pork ribs was surprisingly good too, seasoning is just right!
