Bought a whole duck from Man Kee Hong Kong Style Roasted (文記港式燒臘) (#01-247, 710 Clementi West Street 2)which makes curry roasted duck. What's curry roasted duck you say?
To summarize what proprietor explained, their ducks were roasted with curry stuffed into the bird so that they would be marinated throughout the roast. After the roasting was complete, the duck would be sliced open to release all the curry that was in it and collected as gravy for the rice. It would be a duck flavour infused curry.
The roast standards were unimpressive. The roasted ducks were of average standards at best and there wasn't much of the curry flavour in most of the meat which were also a little tough. Not exactly what I had expected of "restaurant standards" as they had claimed.
Curry was nice - made good accompaniment to steamed rice even though we couldn't taste any duck in it. Pretty oily though.
