Our take: 七星手工包点 (7 Star Handmade Dim Sum) at Empress Market offers a range of dim sum at budget-friendly prices, often highlighted for its handmade quality.

Reviewers frequently praise the generous fillings and larger-than-average portions for items like the siew mai and bao.

The Century Egg Siew Mai and the various porridges, particularly the Minced Meat and Century Egg, are popular choices, with porridges priced at $3.50 each and siew mai plates at $2.50.

The 大包 ($2) and Char Siew Bao ($1.10) also receive positive mentions for their tasty, well-filled interiors.

However, some experiences indicate inconsistency, with criticisms regarding the texture of the Chee Cheong Fun and Har Gao, described as having thick or rubbery skins.

There's also a serious concern raised about a change-giving incident, suggesting a need for customers to be vigilant when paying with larger denominations.

Despite these points, the overall sentiment leans towards good value for handmade dim sum.

We think it's a solid option for an affordable, hearty breakfast or early lunch, especially if you're in the Farrer Road area.

Best for a quick, no-frills dim sum fix rather than a destination meal.

If you are visiting Singapore Botanic Gardens by MRT, why not drop by to Farrer Road MRT Station which is just a train stop away? Just a 5 mins walk from the train station lies this unassuming dim sum…

Disappointing. Came here due to the good reviews. We ordered the Chee Chong Fun and Har Gao. As shown in picture, both "skins" were thick. Chee Chong Fun has a chewy texture instead of smooth silky .…

Handmade dim sum - love the 豆沙包! Generous filling that is smooth and silky. Other dim sum is good too

The dim sum items are ok. But i think the owner of the stall ( the husband) is either being forgetful or not being honest. My husband bought an item , gave a $50 bill but the stall owner insisted it…
