Description: Sin Huat Seafood Restaurant and its signature Crab Bee Hoon have legions of fans who don’t mind waiting in queue for its fine fare. The relatively modest pairing of large, meaty Sri Lankan crabs and bee hoon is elevated to gastronomic heights here; each platter comprises a huge crab filled with bright-hued roe and firm and juicy flesh, swimming in a thick pool of flavoursome broth and transparent noodles. Famous foodies such as celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain, the Age newspaper’s food critic Matthew Evans and famed British food writer Kevin Gould have indulged in this dish and come away effusive with praise. But beware: the restaurant is perpetually packed. Those in-the-know will tell you that the magic hour to visit for a taste of heaven is after 9pm, so one can avoid all that waiting time.
