🔥 Coquitlam's Hidden Singaporean Gem: Singapore Hawker
📍 Location: 1169 Pacific St, Coquitlam (near Coquitlam Centre & Lincoln Station) 🍽️ Why It’s Always Packed 1️⃣ Authentic Hawker Vibes: Tiny space, big flavors—like a Singapore street stall teleported to BC. 2️⃣ Value Champion: ~$17 per dish, but portions could feed two meals (hello, leftovers!). 🌟 Must-Order Dishes 1️⃣ Hainanese Chicken Rice 🍗🍚 ‼️BEST DISH‼️ • Silky poached chicken + fragrant oily rice (must add-on!). Pro tip: Drench it in ginger-scallion sauce. 2️⃣ Char Kway Teow 🍜 • Wok-hei magic: Smoky flat noodles with shrimp, egg, and chives. One plate = two lunches. 3️⃣ Stir-Fried Garlic Veggies with Shrimp 🦐🥬 • Piled high with shrimp—simple but so garlicky it’s addictive. 4️⃣ Bak Kut Teh 🍖 • Herbal pork rib soup—skip if you dislike licorice-ish notes (but try their curry/laksa next time!). 💡 Pro Tips ✅ Go early: Lunch lines snake out the door (or order takeout). ✅ Rice hack: Always upgrade to chicken rice ($2 extra)—worth every penny. ✅ Parking: Tight—try Coquitlam Centre’s lot (5-min walk). “Why fly to Singapore when this exists in Coquitlam?” ✈️🍛 #CoquitlamEats #SingaporeanFood #HawkerStyle
