This Dim Sum shop in Marina Square offers dishes from $1.20 nett, great for those on a budget

Finding affordable food in Singapore is challenging– especially when the cost of living is high in general. Moreover, I am sure a part of our pay check goes to Christmas shopping this month!

If you are looking for more affordable food options in shopping malls, you might want to read on!

At Hong Kong Zhai Dim Sum, you can get affordable dim sum from $1.20 nett. Apart from dim sum, there are other wide selection of items you can choose from– like desserts, mains and drinks.

Here is the full menu:

All prices you see are nett prices, which means you do not have to pay additional GST and service charge. It is quite rare for an eatery in a shopping mall to offset these charges!

Dim Sum are one of the best foods to be shared with your loved ones– sharing means you can reduce the overall cost individually too!

Apart from Marina Square, they have two other outlets at Bedok and Ang Mo Kio if you live further away.
