This Sin Huat Eating House hawker has strict rules for ordering his famous crab bee hoon
“If you’re eating duck rice (from the neighbouring stall), I’m not cooking for you,” says eccentric hawker Danny Lee, whose notoriously pricey Geylang zi char stall has no menu and unwritten rules.
Danny Lee, the eccentric and outspoken owner of Sin Huat Eating House, is known for his strict rules and particular approach when it comes to ordering his famous crab bee hoon. Lee, who operates his seafood stall in Geylang Kopitiam alongside Sean Kee Duck Rice and Kin Turtle Soup, often refuses to serve customers who have already dined at other stalls in the area, claiming they have already filled up on food.
Lee, who takes orders and cooks every dish himself, has even been compared to a "food Nazi" by food bloggers for his strict adherence to his own rules. Despite his no-frills setting, Lee's crab bee hoon has earned him a Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition and has attracted celebrity diners such as Anthony Bourdain. One TikTok user described her S$294 meal as "heavenly" but warned that such steep prices are "insane."
