We've tried Meng Meng Roasted Duck previously from their outpost at Ang Mo Kio. While it wasn't bad at all, it also wasn't as impressive as we've imagined after hearing the good things about their roasts. This meal (Lot MF21A-22, Level 3, Jalan Wong Ah Fook, Bandar Johor Bahru, 80000 Johor Bahru) changed thing. It was kinda better than we imagined.
Chilled ginseng chrysanthemum tea was nice.
Because we wanted to try all of their roasts, we went 三拼. Duck's tender, deboned and had enough fat with the skin for flavour. Great crunchy crackling on the siew yoke and lovely bittersweet caramelization enveloped the fatty char siew. Meats were moist and rounded up with their sweet dang gui/Chinese Angelica/当归 sauce. 👍🏼
We asked for an extra portion of the dang gui sauce just for the rice.
These truffle char siew baos were outstanding. The buns were light and fluffy, barely holding themselves together to contain the sweet smoky char siew with sauce in its core.
