“The cheapest Michelin meal in the world” Liao Fan Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Rice and Noodle has gone on to open its 2nd restaurant.
The humble hawker stall at Chinatown literally received stardom when it was awarded one Michelin star in the Singapore Michelin Guide 2016.
This time, “Hawker Chan” can be found at 18 Tai Seng Street, a few steps away from Tsuta Ramen, opposite Tim Ho Wan. You can literally eat 3 different stars a day, in a way.
Prices still remain very affordable, with most items $5.00 and below, making it a suitable place for the family for a casual meal out.
The signature Soya Sauce Chicken Rice is priced at $3.80. Other offerings include Soya Sauce Chicken Noodle ($4.50), Soya Sauce Chicken Hor Fun ($4.50), Roasted Pork Rice ($4.50), Char Siew Rice ($4.00) and Pork Ribs Rice ($4.00).
A whole Soya Sauce Chicken is priced at $25.00, while half cost $13.00.
I add the disclaimer that perhaps you shouldn’t come here expecting “Michelin” quality food. After all, it was the hawker stall at Smith Street that received the star, not the air-conditioned eateries.
Ordering works on a self-service electronic system, and I thought the placement of tables made the space cramped, and hard for walking at certain sections. Do not sit near the entrance if you have the chance.
While I was blown away by the food at the hawker stall, mass production and diversification might have affected quality here.
The Soya Sauce Chicken Rice $3.00 (I added char siew for $3.00) wasn’t as tasty, lacked that aromatic oily scent, and rice was cooked slightly wet.
I read some reviews commenting that the Soya Sauce Chicken Noodle ($4.50) was too salty, and I had to agree with them. Like, what happened?
To be fair, the meats still retained about 60 – 70% of the quality I experienced last year, with the chicken still being slippery on its skin, with a tender yet firm bite.
