Roast Duck Rice and Chinese Tea Ice
Opposite from the Meng Kee Char Siew restaurant where many people sing praises on it's heavenly Char Siew and whatnot lies a lesser known stall but to me is a better restaurant called Restoran Hing Loong.
Over here, the family business are better known for their Roasted Duck where it's glistening skin hangs upon the makeshift stall that sits just outside of the restaurant for preparation. Make no mistake, that's the only stall in this restaurant. There's nothing else here unlike usual hawker stall so it's something like the Meng Kee Char Siew restaurant where it has it's own restaurant by itself. On this day, my colleague out of the blue invited me out for lunch just so I can ferry her around and that she also wanted to buy some baking flour as well. But as we were out on our way for food, we had changed our minds about four times before finally deciding upon Restaurant Hing Loong to have our lunch.
And so we sat right down and ordered what they're most famous for, their Roasted Duck Rice. To wash down all the grease and grime, we had the Chinese Tea Ice to wash down those oil. In this place, you can sit down first and a person will come and take your food order while the drink order will be separately done by someone else. The ambiance of the place is not much being just a normal kopitiam kind of restaurant but only thing is that there's only one stall.
It didn't take long for the order to be brought to us. Well, it shouldn't anyway. Because it's just make sure what was the order, chop up the correct meat and serve with the rice and gravy and soup. The amount of meat given for my meal was adequate and sufficient. In fact, it looks a little more than some places give out. The duck meat glistens and beckons me to bite into it as I salivate while taking a decent picture of it. The free soup was just a normal plain soup with not very thick taste but good enough. As I always like to do, I would drench my rice with some of the hot soup to make the rice maintain a warm temperature. As expected, the duck meat was nice and juicy. Most of the time, duck meat are tough and hard to get meat off the bone but this is not the case though a certain amount of effort is still required. The duck may not be better than Loong Foong Seafood Restaurant nor Sunrise but it does hold it's own to be a good duck meat to consume.
I find this place a better location to have rice than Meng Kee Char Siew because Meng Kee's portion is small and always leave me not really satisfied in eating and I'm a person who never order extra rice. On top of that Meng Kee Char Siew is pricey and is always full of people as oppose to Hing Loong where Hing Loong's price is just ordinary like any other rice stalls at your local kopitiams. Their spacing between tables are also good giving you ample amount of room although I must say there are times they may be filled with people as well. However, you're still assured with a lot of room at your seating place.
In addition to their duck meat, their roasted pork are also not bad though they're not the best around. Still, it's more than good. So if Meng Kee looks way too intimidating with it's always crowded atmosphere, this is a very good alternative place. Plus, there's nowhere else to get duck meat around here. Well, not that I know of.
Total Wallet Damage:
I can't really remember. If I'm not mistaken, it's RM6 for the Roasted Duck Rice and 50 sen (?) for the Chinese Tea Ice.
Final Verdict:
7/10. Give this place a try. It's quite good in my books.
