Forbidden Duck

One of the better Chinese restaurants in the CBD - innovative cooking, with unique dishes. The signature dishes should all be tried. The slow roast duck is juicy with a variety of textures showing through the thick-cut pieces of meat. The Forbidden Duck is less yummy than its equivalent at nearby Imperial Treasure Super Peking Duck. My favs are the seafood crispy rice in duck soup, and the giant egg tart with a touch of yuzu.

The custard was soft and not too sweet. The yuzu jam at the bottom added an interesting dimension to the taste.

The duck was tender and juicy. On its own, it was a little bland. Have to dip it in the calamansi-infused hoisin sauce and eat with the subtly flavored calamansi buns and condiments.

That’s what the menu said. These really challenged our bellies after a feast. Each is the size of a teacup. They weren’t joking. Although the egg custard was smooth, I found the taste one-dimensional, and the crust was a bit thick for my liking. Luckily there’s Yuzu sauce at the bottom of the tart which makes it easier to finish. Interesting twist to the egg tart. ($6 for 2)
