went out lunch with some good friends today on 16.6.2015. we had wanted to take my favourite chai chuan tou chinese mutton soup 柴船头羊肉汤 at bukit merah view market & food centre. however the stall was closed & seemed that only reopen on 1.8.2015. that’s a long time to close shop!
so we settled on happy duck!^^ price was reasonable. we had 1/2 braised duck for S$18. also added the kueh chap including 4 items = pigs ear, intestines, pig skin & kong bak for S$10.
the duck was pretty good for me. duck was tender, good flavour & chilli was great too. 1 friend thought it was average, quite fine. another thought the one next to hoover rojak at whampoa market, liang zhao ji duck rice, was better – that’s my memory too, but i had not eaten at that duck stall for umpteen years. i know what i don’t like though – the one previously at south buona vista with the gluey sauce, lim seng lee boneless duck. taste is personal, haha!
my own favourite braised duck is at imperial treasure teochew, & it’s not expensive either just S$28 for 1/2 duck (of course that’s a bit more than S$18 here.
another friend’s favourite was 店小二’s roast duck but that is another story. unfortunately we seemed to run out of places to find goose, braised or roast.
we had 2 rice & 2 kueh. that added another S$2, my kueh was ok, average. the rice did not seem to be yam rice, maybe just sauce. another it was just S$2 for 4. so it was S$30, and it was quite enough for 5pax (1 friend came slightly late & added his own kueh).
