Singapore hawkers wanted for Anthony Bourdain's New York street food hall
TV host Anthony Bourdain invites Singapore hawkers to set up shop in a new street food hall in Manhattan
By Kenneth Goh
TV host Anthony Bourdain is looking for good Singapore hawkers to whip up chicken rice and $$$$$ at his street food hall in New York by early next year.
Set up by the chef-turned-TV star and his business partner Stephen Werthen, Bourdain Market will be in Manhattan and will feature international street food.
Bourdain refuses to give specific names, but says he hopes to convince good hawkers from Singapore to go to New York or send representatives there.
"It is essential that we have good chicken rice, $$$$$, char kway teow and perhaps nasi lemak and bak kut teh. If we don't have those, we are nothing," the 58-year-old says over the telephone from New York. He has raved about TianTian Hainanese Chicken Rice in Maxwell Road Food Centre in 2008 on his show, No Reservations. He also sang the praises of Sungei Road $$$$$ in Jalan Besar and Hill Street Char Kway Teow in Bedok South Road when he was here in 2006.
