Heng Gi Goose and Duck Rice is a Michelin Bib Gourmand hawker stall renowned for its expertly prepared braised duck rice, attracting long queues of loyal customers daily. The duck is braised slowly in a rich, aromatic soy-based herbal sauce, resulting in meat that is incredibly tender, moist, and deeply flavourful. Each slice has a smooth texture and absorbs the savoury braising liquid beautifully, making every bite satisfying without being overly salty.
The duck is served over a bed of fragrant rice, lightly drizzled with their signature gravy that enhances the overall taste while keeping the dish comforting and balanced. The accompanying chilli provides a gentle heat and tanginess, lifting the richness of the duck and adding another layer of flavour. The portion is generous, and the quality remains consistently high despite the stall’s popularity.
What makes Heng Gi stand out is its dedication to traditional preparation and attention to detail. The flavours are authentic, clean, and nostalgic, reflecting classic Singapore hawker heritage. Simple yet refined, Heng Gi delivers one of the most satisfying braised duck rice experiences in Maxwell Food Centre, fully deserving of its Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition.
Heng Gi Goose and Duck Rice at Tekka Centre is a humble hawker stall recognised by the Michelin Guide Bib Gourmand for its comforting braised duck rice. The duck is tender and flavourful, braised in a fragrant soy-based herbal gravy that pairs perfectly with a bowl of steamed rice. Each plate is served with fresh cucumber slices that add a light and refreshing crunch to balance the richness of the meat.
One of the best parts is the value. For only about SGD 4, the meal comes with duck, rice, and even a small bowl of warm herbal soup, making it an affordable and satisfying hawker meal. Adding their braised soya egg is highly recommended, as it soaks up the savoury sauce and brings extra depth of flavour. Simple, hearty, and comforting, it is a classic dish that keeps regulars returning. 🦆🍚
