Although Sin Huat\u2019s seafood fare is listed as available from 6.30pm, Lim turned up at 11.30am on a weekday \u2013 and was served his food just 20 minutes later. It seems Lee isn\u2019t too fussed about sticking to the stated hours. Well, it is his coffee shop, after all.<\/p>\n
True to form, Lee tried to persuade Lim to order his signature prawns and fish too. The young host declined, sticking to just the crab bee hoon and kai lan. Perhaps because it was still early in the day and Lee was in a good mood, the hawker accepted his decision without much fuss.<\/p>\n
A massive plate of bee hoon with a single crab weighing between 1.5kg and 2kg cost Lim S$156. By Sin Huat\u2019s standards, that didn\u2019t seem too outrageous: The crustacean was enormous and very meaty, comfortably feeding two to three people.<\/p>\n
Lim raved about the crab\u2019s firm, sweet flesh and found the bee hoon perfectly cooked in a robust, tasty stock, though it had \u201clittle to no wok hei\u201d on this particular visit.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s big, it\u2019s sweet. Wow, it\u2019s nice,\u201d he remarked while tucking into a chunky claw. He also enjoyed the garlicky kai lan, which cost S$10.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
