    Jit Seng Hong Kong Roast Duck

    Spanning close to four generations, this modest stall has been one of the ideal reasons why Carnavon Street is full of life during lunch time. The owner learned his duck roasting techniques from numerous sifus in Hong Kong, where the name comes from. If you’re little late, you’ve got to wait while being teased by a row of ducks with appealing mahogany colour, thanks to the slow charcoal roasting process. The skin is resoundingly crispy yet utterly tender inside with punch of smoky flavours. It’s habitually paired with fragrant rice slathered with dark soy sauce and chili dipping.

Hands down, this restaurant is devoted to satisfying duck aficionados by raising the bar sky high with bold and exciting flavours. Among their showstoppers is Roasted Duck Confit which sits on a bed of mashed pumpkins with sides of blanched greens and roasted garlic. The meat is absolute fork-tender, sliding off the bone, the mash offers a creamy coat and dabbling into their signature sauce just elevates the whole meal. With a name that easily imprints into your memory, you know why and interior that is a perfect blend of heritage preservation and modern touches, What The Duck is a must visit.
