Hawker Food in Melbourne: Michelin-Star Flavours & $10 Feasts! (Ep. 1)

Welcome to Episode 1 of our Hawker Food in Melbourne series! In this first instalment, we dive into two must-try hawker-style spots that bring the bold, authentic flavours of Southeast Asia right to the streets of Melbourne. First up, we visit Local Hero — a hawker stall that’s won 9 Michelin Star awards overseas and is famous for its rich, creamy laksa. But the real surprise? Their Hainanese chicken rice blew us away with its gingery aroma and incredibly flavourful chicken-infused rice. https://maps.app.goo.gl/yFPSE3cSrrcpe... Next, we head to Jalan Alor, where you’ll find some of the cheapest eats in Melbourne — nothing over $20! We try their $10 dishes, but the standout has to be the pork knuckle rice for just $12.50. Big flavours, small price. https://maps.app.goo.gl/jwdh2cfA982BP... Join us as we explore Melbourne’s hawker scene, one bite at a time!
