I’ve heard about the roast duck rice at Loong Foong Restaurant for quite a some time, but since one of my housemates do not consume duck and a failed attempt to dine there (they ran out), I finally had the chance to let my taste buds judge what the fuss was all about.
yes, it’s a “seafood” restaurant
The odd thing about the roast duck rice stall is the location of it, at the Loong Foong seafood restaurant. I assume there are quite a lot of people who orders the duck as just another dish instead of as the only item to be eaten with rice. I wasn’t interested in seafood that day, so we ordered up roast duck rice for two.
When the dish were served, I was pretty impressed with the duck at least visually, the skin roasted to the perfect dark golden brown color with some dark sauce over. I was not too thrilled about the rice though, they served normal white rice instead of the special blend of duck rice like what you get at the PJ State Loh Duck. However, a bite on the soft and tender duck explained why this place is so highly regarded, the texture of the meat was perfect, easy to chew and with no pungent duck smell that is undesireable to many. And the skin.. the roast duck skin was that of the Peking duck caliber, reminded me of a few times I had the chance to taste that expensive dish in a proper Chinese restaurant.
just look at the crispy duck skin
The chili sauce was pretty good as well, an extra portion of the dark sauce is served together with the dish for blending with the rice. This sort of make up for the fact that white rice is served, though I would still prefer the proper blend instead.
Despite the small shortcoming, the roast duck lives up to its name. This place is not to be missed if you do eat duck at all. The dinner costs about RM 14 for pretty a good portion of duck. I would definately go there again.

Not opened for lunch, only dinner time. I usually ta pau the duck home as it’s yummy. Like J said the achar is also nice. Note that the Lucky Seafood also started their roast duck stall, wonder if it’s nice? The cheras one nick mentioned is also a favourite. Hmmm, was planning to do duck tday, luckily I did not post it or else we have lots of feathers flying today.

Ducks that are sold in seafood restaurants are normally drowned ducks. Still seafood.

Sunrise duck is nice when eaten there – once you bring home, it taste awful. They serve lunch only and it is awfuly hot and stiffy and really crowded!
Loong Foong Duck is better – eat-in ur take out! Their achar is superb fresh but not the type you can refrigerate!!!
I
think they serve dinner only amd also awfully crowded!

This duck is best in town and always sold out by 7:30pm. I never go Sunrise and Petaling Street’s 4 Ngan Chai ever since I found this gem
