Ordered the 3 types of meat (roast duck/char siu/ roast pork) + rice & soup, 2 types of meat (roast duck / roast pork) + rice & soup and shrimp dumpling. Good flavour with nice charred to the roast duck.

Duck seems to be smoked/cured before finishing over a yakiniku type of charcoal grill. More of a leaner type of duck and texture will be on the drier & tougher side. Overall, the flavour is good.

The char siu and roast pork tasted great, especially the char siu. The marination for the char siu is good with nicr meat to fat ratio! As for roast pork, skin is cripsy but the fat is slightly too much that gave it a greasy feel. Will be great if there are slightly more meat to the roast pork.

For the shrimp dumpling with cilantro, the sauce seems to be of an acidic (vinegar) base mixed with some sugar and chilli oil. Meat fillings in the dumpling seasoned with cumin (i think?) which is slightly overpowering the original flavour.

Other interesting items on the menu such as beef noodles, claypot rice and some ala carte dishes.. will pop by when i have cantonese/taiwanese cravings again!

Very nice place. The waiter speaks English 😊. The food was very duck. Specialized in grilled meat. We tried the pork and the chicken.

I visited for lunch.
I was a student 30 years ago, and it was the first time in 30 years that I came to this area, but I felt less nervous and felt the passage of time.

This shop is located on such a street.
It was lovely. It was lunch, so I just had a delicious meal and went home, but I thought it would be a good restaurant to go to and get familiar with the community.

It was also a store I wanted to stop by.
Lunch was also delicious! Authentic!
