Hawkers beat Gordon Ramsay in local food challenge

S'pore hawkers beat Gordon Ramsay in local food challenge



It's official, Singapore’s hawkers have beat out Michelin-starred chef Gordon Ramsay in a much-talked about food challenge.

Ramsay however did win Singaporeans over with one dish -- Chili Crab!

That's according to 1,000 votes from members of the public who showed up at the culinary challenge.

Three of Singapore's most popular hawkers squared-off against Ramsay at Newton Food Centre.

Singaporeans started queuing as early as 1am the night before to get a chance to sample three local dishes -- Chicken Rice, Laksa and Chilli Crab.

Diners were then asked to vote for their preferred version of each dish.

Out of the three dishes, the hawkers won for Chicken Rice and Laksa.

The three hawkers were chosen to take on Ramsay through an online poll.
