Editor’s Note
Last updated 19 Oct 2026
Our take: Bao Fa Cha Chaan Teng in Toa Payoh has garnered a strong following for its dim sum, with many reviewers highlighting the freshness and handmade quality of the dishes.
The Har Gow consistently receives praise for its thin skin and succulent prawns, while the Siew Mai is noted for being tasty and juicy.
Other standouts include the chilli oil wontons with their vinegary kick, and the fragrant lotus leaf rice.
While most items hit the mark, we've noted some mixed feedback on the Xiao Long Bao, with some finding it a 'miss' or a 'quiet performer'.
The service is frequently described as friendly and attentive, with staff and even the owner making rounds to engage with patrons.
Given its popularity and small area, we anticipate potential waits during peak hours, especially for the limited outdoor, dog-friendly seating.
We think it's a solid choice for those seeking authentic, well-executed dim sum with a friendly atmosphere.
Worth a visit, but be prepared for a potential wait.
