Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Tiong Bahru Pau & Snack in Jurong East offers a range of traditional dim sum, with many items priced between $1-$2.50.

We think this makes it a relatively affordable option for a kopi tiam setting, especially when considering overheads compared to hawker stalls.

Signature items like the Siew Mais are often highlighted for their generous size and well-marinated meat, and the century egg porridge is noted for its comforting, slightly watery consistency.

Other popular choices include the Mai Gai, Fan Choy, and egg tarts.

While some find the har gao skin too thick, the overall consensus points to a decent variety of both fried and steamed dim sum, with the fried spring rolls and egg wrap with meat being particular standouts.

We'd recommend visiting early in the morning for the freshest batches.

However, be prepared for potentially brisk service, as some customers have noted staff can be direct, especially during busy periods.

Overall, it's a reliable spot for traditional dim sum, offering comfort food for locals.
