Best Roast Duck in KL

Written by Updated ago

From rowdy Donald and Daffy Duck on TV to the cute yellow rubber duck you used to play in the bathtub, you cannot deny this familiar bird has long since been a part of our life. Aside from pop-culture influence, let’s not forget how tasty it is, particularly the ones we call ‘roast duck’. Like the roasted counterparts of chicken, char siew as well as siew yuk, this is one of the more popular meat varieties in Chinese cuisine. In Malaysia alone, you can easily spot them in Chinese stalls, cafés and restaurants, and some special occasions such as wedding dinner. But not every palate is accustomed to the taste of roast duck, especially if it ends up too gamey upon the first bite. Of course, a well-prepared version can result into a scrumptious meal if it fulfills the two simple criteria – it has crispy skin on the outside and tender meat on the inside.

    Sek Yuen RestaurantNon halal 01f78899591256b47a2708a65f6538333b86089a30fbd22545a41deece4ea490

    For more than six decades since 1948, in the heavily populated area of Jalan Pudu, Sek Yuen Restaurant has certainly stood the test of time. It has retained the same old nostalgic look where modernisation seems to be out of the question in the owner’s mind. Likewise, its popular dishes have survived throughout the days – one happened to be their signature ‘Pei Pa’ duck dish. It is pleasingly cooked using traditional wood-fire technique (which also goes for the other dishes). So don’t be surprised by the beautifully charred taste on your first bite, the thin-layered crispy duck skin and sumptuously juicy meat as you sink your teeth deeper. Remember to dip them into sweet-and-sour plum sauce for an enhanced flavourful duck meal!
    Tips

    It is advisable to order the roast duck in advance prior to arrival.

    Things to expect

    Old-fashioned restaurant, with a choice to dine in a ceiling fan-equipped air-conditioned premise.

    Best with

    Eight Treasure Duck, Winter Melon Soup and Shark Fin Omelette.

    Price

    RM78.00

    Now don’t just make the stall above your last stop because here comes another tasty roast duck joint, also located at the heart of Pudu.

Apart from Beijing-styled, you can opt for the sesame version, or even try out their roast goose or chicken. Another dish that you should look out for is the glass char siew, which unlike the standard ones, is sweet and caramelised, with tasty charred layer around the side.

    If you don’t mind digging deeper into your wallet for a slightly upper-class experience, head on to Village Roast Duck nestled within the exquisite Bangsar mall. Here you’ll find an extensive menu of Chinese cuisine which includes BBQ meat, soya chicken, fried rice, seafood porridge, noodles, hot pot, soup and vegetables. Many patrons however, chose this venue primarily for its signature roast duck and it’s easy to see why. The duck dish is perfectly executed – it is marinated in a special sauce and roasted to tender perfection. Among the best sellers are Crispy Aromatic Duck served with pancake wrap and Special Boneless (or with bone, if you prefer the traditional way) Roast Duck cooked in Cantonese Style. Pick from ‘portion’, ‘half’ or ‘whole’ varieties.
    Tips

    The restaurant is usually packed during lunch and dinner time, so do come early to avoid disappointment.

    Sze Ngan ChyeNon halal 01f78899591256b47a2708a65f6538333b86089a30fbd22545a41deece4ea490

    Don’t be fooled by this little run-down stall wedged within the busy Petaling Street. Sze Ngan Chye (translated directly as four-eyed boy – bespectacled guy) has been trading successfully for more than 50 years! This tiny hideout has been famous for its signature roast duck, which is specially marinated with different spices. The meat is deeply flavourful with a hint of unique salty taste, while the skin is delectably crispy. Apart from it, the Duck Feet Parcel is equally wonderful. This peculiar label refers to the combination of duck feet, liver and pork belly, wrapped together using duck intestine, and drenched in sweet char siew sauce.
    Tips

    Sze Ngan Chye in Petaling Street is only available for takeaway, but you can choose to dine-in at their restaurant in Kepong near Jalan Metro Perdana Barat 3.

    Things to expect

    Don’t be surprised if you encountering a long queue, especially during major Chinese festivals.

    Best with

    While you’re at it in the Petaling Street area, a takeaway from the nearby famous “Air Mata Kucing” drink stall would be a perfect complement for your roast duck.

    Who says you can put the fancy in some of the simplest dish? These cuts of gloriously juicy duck meat are not just there to put the glow in your eyes, but also lace your taste buds with some devilishly divine flavours. The tawny overtone just merges with the flesh for a one hit wonder that lingers on your palate with every bite that you take; couple the zesty orange sauce for a more, well, explosive flavour. 

    Tips

    Parking after 5pm is at a flat rate.

    A beautiful view of the urban landscape.

    Yummy Duck Roast HouseNon halal 01f78899591256b47a2708a65f6538333b86089a30fbd22545a41deece4ea490

    The bustling neighbourhood of Kuchai Lama is no stranger to a potpourri of different cuisines. So if you’re here for a good roast duck, you’ll definitely find one! Yummy Duck Roast House offers not only the typical roast duck dish, but also springy Hong Kong-styled wantan mee, and the satisfying char siew and siew yuk to complement it. If you’re a first-timer, opt for the “3 combination noodle” where you can pick from soup, dry or spicy version. Then add in any three dishes to go with it. Choose from roast duck, char siew, siew yuk, spare ribs, roast chicken, wantan and dumpling!
    Tips

    Parking is notoriously difficult in Kuchai Lama, so either you double-parked (which seems like a standard practice in this area) or choose to dine during off-peak hour.

    Things to expect

    Nice and comfortable environment, albeit with a higher price than the usual Chinese restaurant or stall selling roast meats.

    Best with

    Don’t just settle one, as you can order a combo meal (e.g. roast duck + char siew).
