HOHO! Long time no meet misstamchiak! The last we met was at Chanelle’s one year old party in March. This woman is very busy lol but I’m touched that she remembered my birthday although she wished me one day earlier. *ahem* Ok la I better stop saying that she’s busy if not she will strangle me. Hahaha. Maureen asked me to pick a place and I chose London Fat Duck, knowing that she has not tried the food there!
London Fat Duck is a Hong Kong-style restaurant, serving roast duck like the ones made famous by restaurants such as Four Seasons and Gold Mine in Bayswater, London. Using the best Irish Duck famous for its quality, the Signature London Roast Duck ($48.80 whole, $26 half, $12.80 regular) is also affectionately known as “Wagyu of Ducks”. Enhanced with their Hong Kong chef’s secret duck roasting technique and heritage recipe, the duck meat is tender and succulent but what really stole the show was that thick layer of fat underneath the thin crispy skin.
Basically, we were there to whack their signature dishes so we ordered the London Roast Duck Noodle ($7.80) as well, even though we were already having half a roast duck. Over here, a roast duck drumstick is served together with thin springy noodles.
Don’t you agree that these Crispy London Duck Snow Buns ($4.80 for 3 pcs) look similar to Tim Ho Wan’s char siew buns? The buns were generously filled with juicy chunks of duck meat laden with sweet gravy.
These slices of Barbeque Pork with Honey Sauce ($14.80) were also pretty tender with a slightly crisp exterior. I liked that there was a slight smokiness to it.
I wouldn’t have thought of trying out the Signature Steamed Chee Cheong Fun ($5.80) if not for Maureen’s suggestion. Thankfully, the fried prawn rolls encased in steamed rice rolls turned out to be quite good! My only complaint is that they were too stingy with the sauce. Lol.
I definitely wouldn’t recommend the London Duck Dumpling ($12.80) because it tasted way too weird. I couldn’t even make out what I was eating.
Thanks Maureen for the cakes from Chock Full of Beans and also, the generous birthday dinner treat!
Please note that London Fat Duck does not accept reservations at the moment. Also, a table will be assigned to you only if everyone in your group is present.
