Choo Chiang Roasted Meat Noodle House 珠江烧腊面家 (Bencoolen Road)

Choo Chiang Roasted Meat Noodle House 珠江烧腊面家 is a chain of hawker stalls specialising in selling Roasted Duck, Roasted Pork and Char Siew noodles. Choo Chiang first started its business in 1987. Over the years, it has expanded and today has over 10 outlets with a central kitchen to ensure that quality is not compromised. In addition, catering to buffets and takeaway delivery.

I visited its stall at Bencoolen Road (10 minutes from Bugis MRT station).

Roasted Duck and Roasted Pork Noodles $5

Roasted Duck and Roasted Pork Noodles $5

The Roasted Duck was tender and juicy, not too dry not too hard. The Roasted Pork (sio bak) lacked the crisp cracking skin and was saved by the soft bones (which I like). On the other hand, the noodles was well cooked, soft but not soggy and still springy. It was drizzled with sweet gravy that was robust and flavourful. The pork lard enhanced the flavour even more! The gravy complement the noodles and meat well.

It was served with both green chilli and sambal chilli. The sambal chilli was not bad. But a tad too sweet and lack a spicy kick.

Char Siew Roasted Duck Noodle $4.50

Char Siew Roasted Duck Noodle $4.50

The Char Siew was well marinated and tender with a good ratio of fats and lean meat.  A pity there was no charred parts which would have appealed more to me. The Roasted Duck and noodles were as good as what I ate during my last visit.

Overall, I would say that the food here is tasty and affordable. Choo Chiang has several outlets in Singapore. Hopefully, the standard is the same in all their outlets.

Lian Huat Heng Cantonese Roast Duck

**Edited 6th Nov 2011

Stall closed**

Lian Huat Heng Cantonese Roast Duck is located at a corner of 'Good Time Coffee Shop'.Have always noticed that alot of patrons in the coffee shop always seems to order from Lian Huat Heng Cantonese Roast Duck. Hence, decided to give this stall a try on 2 occasions.

On both occasions, there was a short queue at the stall.

Roast Pork & Char Siew Rice

On the first occasion, I ordered the Roast Pork & Char Siew Rice. It does not look very presentable does it? Well do not let its appearance fool you. The rice grains were slightly hard, it help that sauce was added as it help soften the rice. The roast pork  was crispy and not too fatty. Delicious and fragrant. The char siew fared even better. Slightly charred parts providing a crispy and crackling layer at some parts. It was well marinated. Moreover, each piece was sliced such that it was not too thin. A bonus, each order comes with a bowl of soup! Why is it a bonus? Well, like any other roasted meat or chicken rice stall, free soup is given. But this free soup comes along with sichuan vegetable 四川菜 (zha cai) and even pork meat that is with soft bones/cartilage! The soup is salty, but well the ingredients inside was good!

Roasted Duck & Char Siew Rice

On the 2nd occasion, I ordered the Roasted Duck & Char Siew Rice. Similar comments for the rice and char siew as above. The roasted duck was disappointing.  Skin was not crispy. Although meat was tough and dry, it was flavourful.

Again, the soup comes along with sichuan vegetable 四川菜 (zha cai) and even pork meat that is with soft bones/cartilage! To me, I have always prefer pork meat that comes along with the soft bones/cartilage compare to those without.(wonder if I am lucky or all their pork comes with soft bones). A sides note, I have noticed that some people's soup had duck wing or duck leg.

Overall, cheap and good. I am sure I will continue eating here and maybe one day I will be lucky and get the soup with duck leg =)
