Smokin’ Joe
Blk 51 Yishun Ave 11#01-37, Yishun Park Hawker Ctr (Map) 12pm – 9pm Mon
Millennial Joe began his career in fancier restaurants specialising in the grill station. He ditched that path and roosted here. His edge is the use of a Josper oven, an all-steel contraption that nestles a bed of Japanese-style bincho-tan charcoal inside where all his smoky and juicy meats are rendered. The result, whether the usual popular chicken chop, Kurobuta, Angus, or even Wagyu beef, is served with a ton of respect for the fussy diners in the area. It takes time to charcoal-bake them well and Joe will have it no other way. He also oven-roasts the greens that accompany the meats, and he only uses the fryer for his moreish onion rings and fries. This new breed of young-thinking hawkers is the face of the new class of street food hawkers in Singapore. But of late, Joe has been busy managing other eateries and spends less time here, instead leaving it to hired hands cooks aren’t as sharp as he is.
