Kam Heong Duck Rice, New Town

What is the first thing that comes to your mind when I mention 'duck rice'?

When Chris suggested that we had duck rice for dinner yesterday, 'roast duck' came into the picture. Never did I ever thought that the duck rice that we were to have was not roast duck! It was 'lou ngap', which is something like steam, or more like 'braised' duck, Teochew-style! Mmmmm...yums!

I didn't know that the Kam Heong coffeeshop in New Town, PJ (a.k.a State) opens at night JUST for duck rice! During the daytime, this place is packed with stalls & faithful patrons...and it's really stuffy!! But it's just SOOO different at night! :)

They have a decent variety of dishes, from duck to salted veggie, braised mushrooms, dark-sauce boiled egg, & many more :) The rice is also good! Chris claims that the rice is 'so good you can even eat it on its own'!

For RM9.00/person, we had duck, braised mushrooms, salted veggie, & rice :) A little pricey, but I reckon that the current price for duck rice is about this range. The food is good & the atmosphere is also not too bad, considering that it's just a humble coffeeshop!

Here's what we had:

Braised duck for 2 persons

Braised mushrooms
Salted veggie cooked with roast pork bits
