Our take: Lai Kee Pau & Dim Sum offers a traditional dim sum experience, with many reviewers highlighting its affordability and freshness.
The Char Siew Bao and Cheong Fun are frequently praised, with some noting the latter's thin yet resilient texture.
While the standard Har Gao and Siew Mai are considered 'just OK' by some, the variety of Siew Mai and unique dim sum options like those with seaweed or egg are recommended.
We note that service can be inconsistent, with some staff described as slow or occasionally rude, though others found them helpful.
The open-air, non-air-conditioned setting is generally bearable due to good ventilation.
The fried carrot cake received mixed reviews, with one finding it too doughy.
We think this is a solid option for value-for-money dim sum, especially if you're in the Clementi area.
Best for groups looking to try a variety of items, as a 'buy 5 free 1' promo was noted.
Be prepared for potential queues on weekend mornings and bring cash, as e-payment may not be accepted.
