REVIEW: Good Hawker food in Singapore: Hua Ji XO Fish Head Bee Hoon 华记XO鱼头米粉 - One of the best seafood soup in Singapore

Hua Ji XO Fish Head Bee Hoon is a highly regarded hawker stall located in the iconic Old Airport Road Food Centre, one of Singapore’s most beloved food hubs such as Dong Ji Fried Kway Teow and Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee and Hin Fried Hor Fun with Prawn · Beef · Sliced Fish. This stall specializes in XO fish head bee hoon—a classic Singaporean dish featuring silky rice vermicelli (bee hoon) served in a rich, milky fish broth that’s been carefully simmered for hours to extract deep, natural flavors from fish bones.

What sets Hua Ji apart is their expertly balanced broth: it’s thick and creamy but never greasy, with a subtle hint of XO sauce that enhances rather than overwhelms the fresh seafood essence. The fish slices are generous, fresh, and cut thickly, offering a tender and satisfying bite that complements the flavorful soup perfectly.

The rich broth here is slow-cooked for over six hours using fresh fish bones to create a thick, creamy, and flavorful milky fish soup base. The XO sauce is perfectly balanced — subtle and not overpowering — allowing the natural sweetness of the fresh fish slices to stand out. The stall is generous with tender, thick-cut fish slices that add satisfying texture to this beloved Singaporean fish head bee hoon dish.
