[2025 Kuala Lumpur Restaurant] Travel Guide for Hawker Chan (Updated Jul)

#summervacay Hawker Chan KL is a must-visit for anyone craving delicious, affordable chicken rice in the city. Known as the world’s cheapest Michelin-star meal, this spot truly lives up to the hype. Their signature soya sauce chicken rice is a standout—tender, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. I also highly recommend trying the char siew (BBQ pork); it’s caramelized to perfection with just the right balance of sweetness and smokiness. The roasted chicken is equally satisfying, with crisp skin and juicy meat. Every dish is best enjoyed with their house-made chili sauce and savory gravy, which elevate the flavors even more. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, Hawker Chan delivers quality and taste in every bite. It’s a simple, satisfying meal that’s definitely worth lining up for.
