The story of the cook and diner owner from Singapore has become a real sensation on the Web. The fact is that Chan Hon Man, who has been preparing food for 35 for years, has become the second street vendor in history who has received the most famous and highest culinary award - a Michelin star.

The Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Rice and Noodle Tent is wildly popular among Singaporean Chinatown visitors. Every morning, people line up in a long line to enjoy noodles with chicken and soy sauce prepared according to a Hong Kong recipe, writes The Guardian. After it became aware of the award, visitors wait for their turn for more than two hours.

Chan Hong Myung's chicken noodles are the cheapest dish in the Michelin guide, costing just $1,5. Despite the increase in demand, the chef has no plans to increase prices at his kiosk. In just a 17-hour day, he butchers, cooks and sells 180 chickens - 30 more than before receiving the Michelin star.
