Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take: Xin Yun Seafood Fishhead Steamboat, nestled in an Ang Mo Kio hawker centre, is lauded for its traditional charcoal-fired fish head steamboat.

Reviewers consistently highlight the rich, flavourful broth and the generous, fresh chunks of fish, which are a notable departure from the usual fish slices found elsewhere.

The charcoal cooking method is frequently praised for adding depth to the taste.

While the steamboat is the star, priced at $45 or $60 depending on size, the supporting tze char dishes also receive strong recommendations.

The sweet and sour pork is described as 'divine,' and the mayonnaise youtiao is noted as a 'quirky but delightful twist.' Other popular items include the prawn paste chicken, bitter gourd egg, and sambal kangkong.

We note the individual fish soup bowls are also well-regarded, with a large Batang fish soup costing $8.50 and a standard fish soup with rice at $5.50, offering good value.

Be prepared for a wait, as the single chef prepares each dish with care.

We think this is a solid choice for those seeking authentic, well-executed hawker fare, particularly for groups looking to share a steamboat and several tze char dishes.

5/11- this fish soup is super good at very good price @ $5.50 with rice. Normally this will cost $7.50 or more. Highly recommend.

The food is fantastic. The big chunks of fish given in the steamboat is not something you can get from any restaurants, hawker stalls or coffee shops. Usually we see fish slices in the soup but this i…
