The duck rice, duck noodles, and stir-fried duck blood each have their own reason to order; duck aroma with crispy fried shallots is the highlight, while the street-side seating gets hot in summer.

Signature Dishes
Duck Rice
The duck is generous and cut into bite-sized pieces with a smoky aroma; fried shallots add crunch and fragrance. The flavor may run sweet, and the aroma may sometimes feel subdued.
Stir-fried Duck Blood
Stir-frying brings a vinegary aroma, with a tender, bouncy texture and a generous portion; spiciness can vary, and the more pronounced sour flavor may not suit everyone.
Duck Noodles
The broth is rich and the duck is generous; the noodles may taste light, with less overall aroma than the duck rice.
Duck Leg
The skin is springy and the meat is not dry, with a clear smoky aroma; however, there are many small bones, so it takes time to pick them out.
