Original Hock Lam Street Beef Kway Teow is a 108-year-old hawker institution that does not compromise on its standards. By insisting heavily on reproducing the same method of cooking processes since its inception in 1911, the much-beloved hawker has since announced its impending closure on 11 July 2019 citing manpower issues.
It is currently helmed by its fourth-generation owner, Tina Tan. In an open letter addressed to fans of the stall, Tina explicitly detailed the causes for its closure and wishes for only support during this final lap of operations.
Its kway teow dishes are best loved for their dry and soup iterations of the dish. The cooks expertly braise the beef slices to perfect tenderness. The body of the dish lies in the umami beef broth and gravy, simmering over for long hours to produce that distinct savouriness that has resonated with Singaporeans for over 108 years.
Modern times require modern adaptations, and for continuously delivering an authentic, intimate experience into our bowls for 108 years we thank their dedication and undying commitment into ultimately defining what hawker culture truly is.
