If you’ve been kicking yourself for missing Hawker Chan’s temporary visit to London last year - and considering the frankly epic queues, we don’t blame you - then here’s some very important news.
The Michelin-starred street food chef is returning once again to King’s Cross this March! Which means you’ll have a second chance to try his legendary (and very affordable) Singaporean cuisine. And this time he's being joined by Singapore's Bib Gourmand-winning A Noodle Story. The appearance is part of KERB’s ‘Taste of Singapore’ pop-up, all put together by Singapore Airlines, Singapore Tourism Board and Changi Airport Group.
Last year, Hawker Chan’s three-day lunchtime pop-up with KERB was a seismic event, generating queues that made headlines as hundreds of Londoners waited patiently for a chance to try his £6 soya sauce chicken and rice. The chef says he was “overwhelmed with the response”.
Now, he’ll be returning under the same conditions, operating between 11.30am and 2.30pm out of a stall in Granary Square. This year, he’ll be cooking up a new dish of char siew pork and rice, still priced at £6, so even if you tried the chicken last year, it’s still very much worth the mission.
A Noodle Mission will also be on hand serving their Singapore-style ramen, which won a Michelin Bib Gourmand award in 2016.
There’ll only be 300 portions up for grabs each day, so it’s very much worth getting down extra-early as all signs point to this being just as popular as last year’s event, if not more.
The date for your diary is 6-8 March, Wednesday to Friday. And if you are heading down, we wish you the best of luck, (and fingers crossed for good weather).
