Ok....pictures will follow later. This is an overdue post.
On Sat, 5 of us (Me, LF, 7-11, Fatum & VK) went to JB to eat
the "infamous" duck that induced a nosebleed from VK. It was an
impromotu last min thing as 7-11 was busy and had a craving for
it.
And me despite my sprained back, decided to hobble along since I
have nothing better to do at home anyway :(
I shall leave out the shopping bit but we got lost trying to
find the place. LOL It was a day where we spent lots of time
driving around in circles but I have to say it's worth it
The "restaurant" was this bungalow with a few tables. There is
this shed with a giant pit on the floor covered with soil. I think
the pit for cooking the duck is 5' x 8' in size
The "Begger" Duck
Silky soft flesh, moist and juicy from being slowly baked in the
ground. The juice is solid but if you're too 'heaty' or
unwell...I don't think you can eat it because all 5 of us got
"high" from the herbs used! It's really THAT potent!!!
Btw, all of us agreed that 1 duck is not enough!!!
Stir-Fried Sweet Potato Leaves
We all agreed that it would be better with belachan. The leaves
were a tad old but it was very well stir-fried. There was a 'wok'
flavour to the leaves.
Fried Tung Hoong
Nicely fried with good wok flavour. It's very tasty but then again
I might be bias coz I love to eat Tung Hoong
Melon Soup
The kind I like where the melon is hollowed and steamed for the
soup. It's really pure melon essence!!!
And I forgot to take pics of the Melon Soup.....but here is a
picture of the Achar we ate as a starter :P
Btw I think the next time we go again we need to try the pork
stomach version!!
Damage: RM 90+ (They forgot to charge us for the beers too)
This is not the end of it. Right after dinner we walked to the
Malay eatery (kinda like a food court) to feast on ice-kachang and
satay
