Hawker Chan
/Hawker Chan now has an outlet in Box Hill bringing the world’s cheapest Michelin-star meal to locals and visitors of the area. There are both dine-in and takeaway options.
Of particular note is the soy sauce chicken. While the soy sauce recipe is a well-guarded secret, Chan has shared that it includes Chinese angelica root, cloves, coriander seed, and star anise.
The marinade is made from scratch every day and the whole chickens are steeped overnight, and then braised until the skin is deep brown and glossy. The result is the most tender morsels of chicken which are stunningly flavoured.
The char siew is also worth a mention. Think juicy flavoursome pork boasting the most perfect charring on the outside. And if you want to continue your love affair with pork then make sure you try the roasted pork too. Fragrant, sweet and succulent, this roast pork is sheer comfort food - Golden brown, blistered and crunchy.
Alongside these stunning proteins enjoy the slippery noodles and fluffy rice that taste wonderfully authentic. Oh, and add a couple of side dishes for a real feast!
Hawker Chan have also recently introduced a few new additions to the menu. Our top picks are the curry chicken and rice and the spicy minced pork noodles.
With prices starting at $6.80 for a meal, Hawker Chan delivers a gratifying cheap feed for the masses.
