As I reached Ipoh after 2 pm, I could not try the fish noodles as it is only for breakfast so I went to the next best thing - Hawker Chan, the Ipoh-Born Chef Who Won A Michelin Star to taste his famous chicken rice.
As we don't go to Ipoh often, we try as many dishes as the 4 of us can eat. I requested for one rice to be without gravy. All of us like the braised soy beans that they serve with the rice.
Total bill is MYR 56.80 nett, a good price.
Price is ok
Better buy one whole chicken than half a chicken.
I expected the eatery to be bigger so I was surprise to see it to be this small.
Storefront - Hawker Chan, Ipoh.
What is inside that plate in the second photo besides the drink?
ReplyDeleteDeep fried fish skin.
DeleteCertainly is reasonably priced for something from a celebrity chef. Surprised to see that even though the place is so small, for a Michelin chef, it is not packed with people. Maybe the locals prefer their own local favourites. This guy is based in Singapore, right? Sometimes such franchises can be quite disappointing.
ReplyDeletewe were there late, around 3pm so there was a break from the lunch crowd. you most probably won't find this interesting as sibu has so much good food but I think the service is good, food is ok and my friends like the tender chickens.
DeleteI trust that it was a good experience. I would prefer rice with gravy on the side.
ReplyDeleteyes, you could request for the gravy to be served on the side. The staff is very friendly.
DeleteGoing to Penang for holiday?? Nice. I love road trip. Can stop and take a break in places.
ReplyDeleteThis is a famous chicken rice place? Even have a Michelin star. Price is okay.
a quick visit for a weekend only. yes, the one in sg has a Michelin star.
DeleteI am glad you enjoyed the lunch at Hawker Chan. Hope you will get to try the fish noodle one day.
ReplyDeleteI hope so too.
DeleteYummy foods!
ReplyDeleteyes.
DeleteMy personal opinion, can't improve on good hawker food already since they're already of a high standard. Try for fun ok lah.
ReplyDeletethe chicken is different from roasted chicken in hawker food stalls here.
