Lau Pa Sat is well-known hawker or food centre located at Robinson Road and nearby Shenton Way. The history of Lau Pa Sat's began in 1825 when it was a market. Several buildings have been constructed over the centuries and the current Lau Pa Sat is a reconstruction of the building that opened in 1894 with its octagonal shape and original cast iron supports.
Today Lau Pa Sat is a food centre popular with white-collar workers in the Central Business District heading for lunch. It's practically a one-stop food centre with plenty of options but stalls here serve mainly Chinese dishes Singapore-style. Alternatives beyond Chinese include a couple of stalls specialising in Western, Indian and Malay dishes.
