Sin Hoi Sai Eating House
187 East Coast Road, Singapore 428893
Tel: 6440 6956
Sin Hoi Sai Eating House on East Coast Road (not to be confused with it’s cousin Sin Hoi Sai Seafood Restaurant which is located in Tiong Bahru), is a typical Tze Char 煮炒 style restaurant and is not exactly a “hidden gem”.
However, one of their secret menu items absolutely is a hidden gem. The red wine pork ribs! These are so delectably tender you can cut them with a spoon! They also do not appear on the standard menu’s at Sin Hoi Sai – though they do appear on their banner hanging on the back wall.
These mouth-watering fall-off-the-bone ribs are easily the tastiest and most luxurious thing on the menu (and probably the most expensive) – and they come in 3 sizes – small, medium & large (the video and image both show the large portion of the ribs).
Being a Katong local, living in close proximity to Joo Chiat Road I tend to visit Sin Hoi Sai several times a year – usually when visitors are in town or as a treat because it can be spendy-per-pax when compared to other local fare in the area – especially if you choose the better dishes and larger portion sizes.
Aside from the above stunning ribs dish I’d recommend sticking to what Sin Hoi Sai is known for if you want some additional food to try. The Grilled Baby Kailan, Sambal Stingray & Marmite Chicken are all must tries – and are better washed down with an ice cold long neck of Heineken or Tiger.
You may be tempted to smash up the Guinness Pork Ribs but once you’ve had the red wine variety, these aren’t nearly as spectacular so I’d suggested skipping these.
