Red Star restaurant is probably the most authentic, classic looking Chinese restaurant left in Singapore. It practically looks like you’ve stepped back in time to the 1970s. Red Star restaurant’s lay out and recipes have remained much unchanged since the 70s for more than 40 years, giving a very deep impression of nostalgia. The picture above was the scene on a Sunday morning; people love this place.
You see these classic metal chairs with red velvet cushions, carpeted floor and large wooden tables covered by a table cloth. Queue might seem quite long to get in, but I actually took about 15 minutes to queue only. Red Star doesn’t accept reservations, so do come early to beat the queue. Red Star restaurant also employs traditional cart-pushing dim sum ladies like in Hong Kong. There are around 8-10 different trolleys all stocking different items, so you might have to hunt down specific trolleys especially when it’s crowded.
