According to a Straits Times article, Sin Hoi Sai is founded in 1978 by Madam Yap Sor Khim, while it expanded 3 years later to East Coast Road.
She runs the operations at East Coast Road, while her younger brother Yap Seng Lye heads the kitchen. Her two sisters operate the Tiong Bahru branch, and her husband and son also help out in the family business. (Not sure if it is in the same arrangement now.)
The outlet at Tiong Bahru is listed in the Singapore Michelin Guide with a Michelin Plate.

Located in a residential area, Sin Hoi Sai is known for its spacious laid-back surroundings (they have al-fresco dining available) and Singaporean seafood dishes.

The one dish I would often order there is the Pig Trotters Bee Hoon ($10), because it is a dish that is getting harder to find, and Sin Hoi Sai makes a rather house-style and much saucier version than the usual.
