The kitchen has marked Mother's Day with crab two years running. In 2025, 9 to 11 May, it served steamed crab on glutinous rice in a pink pot for $288 plus 5 and 9 course menus. In 2026 it offered a Signature Experience with an XL+ crab in Chilli or Ginger and Scallion style. Both have ended.
Mother’s Day falls on the second Sunday of May: Sunday 11 May in 2025 and Sunday 10 May in 2026. The kitchen’s two Mother’s Day offers so far have both been built around crab and a pink cast-iron pot.
What was offered, year by year?
| Year | Window | Centrepiece | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Friday 9 to Sunday 11 May | Steamed crab on glutinous rice in a pink cast-iron pot, plus a 5 course and a 9 course menu | $288 for the pot |
| 2026 | Not documented | The Mother’s Day Signature Experience: an XL+ whole crab in Chilli or Ginger and Scallion style | Not documented, XL+ crab is $128.80 on the standard size list |
Prices are as of October 2026 and are shown for the record. Both offers were a limited run and have ended. The 2025 special menu was marked as exclusive to 39 Tyrwhitt Road, and the full crab range is prepared there.
Why crab for Mother’s Day?
The kitchen’s catalogue does not explain the choice, and we are not going to invent a reason. What we can say is that crab is the second half of the kitchen’s name and that the dining room at Tyrwhitt Road is where whole crab dishes are served.
How do you book a Mother’s Day table?
Dine-in tables at the flagship are booked through the kitchen’s reservation page. The kitchen’s published rules say that Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays need a small deposit, which covers every Mother’s Day weekend. We do not hold the booking date for either year, so if you want a table next May, join the list and watch for the announcement.
When do Mother’s Day pre-orders open?
We do not have an evidenced date. The 2025 window is documented, the 2026 window is not, and neither tells us when booking opened. We do not guess.
How should you plan?
- Book early and expect a deposit. The weekend falls on days that need one.
- Plan crab a day ahead. Whole crab dishes ordered through the ordering site need one day’s notice.
- Choose the right outlet. The AMK Hub kiosk carries only the Crab Bee Hoon Soup and the Crab Laksa Bee Hoon, not a centrepiece. The Mother’s Day offers were at the flagship, as described on the outlets page.
- Think about allergies. The centrepieces are whole crab, so shellfish allergies matter. The kitchen’s products also contain nuts, eggs, dairy and gluten.
- Remember the dietary position. There is no pork and no lard in the kitchen, and the kitchen is not Halal-certified.
You can read the fuller account of each year in the two posts listed below. When the kitchen announces a Mother’s Day set, the live listing appears on the ordering site. If you want to understand the crab dishes the kitchen serves all year, the crab page is the starting point.
