Why go
The cheapest ex-Michelin meal in town, with a great story: in 2016 Hawker Chan became the world's first Michelin-starred hawker. The soya sauce chicken rice starts at S$3.80.
It's still a cheap, tasty Chinatown icon — go for the history and the value.
The star is history, not current
Hawker Chan LOST its Michelin star in 2021, and 2023–24 reviews call it decent-but-not-special. We pitch it as “cheapest ex-Michelin meal + history” — not as a current Michelin meal.
