HAWKER CHAN

His outlet became the first hawker stall to be awarded a Michelin star in 2016, but chef Chan Hon Meng had been delighting customers with his soya sauce chicken recipe since 2009, when he set up Liao Fan Soya Sauce Chicken Rice & Noodle at Chinatown Complex Food Centre.

He wakes early in the morning to prepare the sauce for marination and to attain the signature flavour and tenderness, followed by many hours of manual braising.

Chef Chan uses only premium and fresh ingredients to prepare the dishes daily and firmly believes consistency in taste and food quality are essential to culinary success.

SHI HUI YUAN

It started as a hawker stall in 1969 and for four consecutive years, from 2016 to 2019, it earned the Michelin Bib Gourmand award.

Famed for its collagen-rich gravy and nutrient-loaded herbal braising sauce, Shi Hui Yuan serves up a unique Singapore-invented hor fun that is both nutritious and affordable.

AH ER SOUP

Established in 2012 at ABC Brickworks Market and Food Centre and awarded the Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2017, Ah Er Soup is famed for its generous portions of traditional Chinese herbal soup that boasts a rich taste due to long hours of simmering.

Some of the popular soups include Herbal Ginseng Black Chicken, Watercress Pork Ribs and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, a luxurious dish containing a variety of high-quality ingredients such as abalone and fish maw.

13 STAGES

Opened by local actor-host Mark Lee and four of his friends who share the same passion for food and kopi, it is known for serving seven flavours of chicken.

To prepare the dishes, it uses fresh chicken legs steamed in a bamboo basket to allow the meat to absorb the flavours, keeping it moist and juicy.

The signature Imperial Chicken Rice is made with a succulent jumbo chicken leg that is steamed to perfection and covered with an aromatic ginger sauce. It is served with fragrant chicken rice and a hearty soup.
