👍 Hawker Chan is delicious—the roast duck rice and duck noodles were tasty, though the noodles were a bit oily. The price is reasonable, and when I came before noon there was no queue. The place is easy to find, not far from Chinatown station. I’ll definitely come again next time.

The place is located right by the roadside, so it’s very easy to find. The dining area is spacious, clean, and has a cozy atmosphere, a nice spot to sit down and enjoy a meal. The service was fast and efficient, and the prices are quite affordable, which was a pleasant surprise considering it's a Michelin starred place. This was actually my first time trying Michelin starred food, so I came in with pretty high expectations. Unfortunately, the overall experience didn’t really live up to the hype. The food was just okay, nothing particularly special in terms of flavor or presentation. What disappointed me the most was that it was served completely cold, not even slightly warm. That definitely affected the overall impression of the meal. While the environment and service were good, I personally expected more from a restaurant with Michelin recognition, especially in terms of the food quality and serving temperature. It might still be worth trying for the experience, but I wouldn't go out of my way to return.

Finally my dream of dining in a Michelin Star restaurant came true at Hawker Chan in Singapore. Wonderful food, quiet ambience and quick service made the overall experience worth the amount spent. The prices are very comparable to the food prices at other hawker centers but the quality and experience is better. They also served vegetable dishes. A must visit place for everyone who visits Singapore.

This former Michelin 1 star hawker now turned franchise restaurant was probably as expected, good but not great. The food was certainly tasty, and the tourist meal which zhas multiple meats was good. The highlight is certainly the soy sauce. However as others have pointed out, the chicken was not warm/hot which is a real disappointment. You sit and read on the wall how he prides himself on the quality etc, yet you see it slipping. The service was also mediocre. The lady servicing us seemed to just be in a rush rather than helpful. Overall fine as a one off experience but won't be back unfortunately.

Finally got to try Hawker Chan, famously known as the world's first hawker stall awarded ONE MICHELIN STAR. I visited their newer shop with air conditioning, which was a relief compared to the original location inside the food market in Chinatown (no AC but cheaper prices). Since I came in the late afternoon, I was pretty sure the chicken at the original stall would already be sold out, so sticking to the air-conditioned shop was a safer bet. The soy sauce chicken was absolutely amazing—tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I have to admit, it’s even better than most soy sauce chicken I’ve had in Hong Kong, which is impressive considering this dish originally hails from HK. Highly recommend checking this place out, especially if you're a fan of soy sauce chicken. Just plan your visit based on what you prefer—comfort with AC or a more authentic hawker experience for a slightly lower price!
