Hup Seng Duck Rice

This is definitely an over-rated stall to visit, what a disappointment! The duck meat is dry , both the duck and salted veg soup is way too salty. Not a pleasant experience when the lady insisted we MUST order a WHOLE duck for 6 paxs. In view of the duck meat portion, we forgo ordering other side dish. This would be my first and last, no thanks Hup Kee Duck Rice !

Located in an industrial coffeeshop The queue was constant so be prepared to wait. Thankfully it moved relatively fast. We ordered half a duck with 2 duck soup since that was highly recommended The duck was tasty with a generous piece of duck leg. No wonder it’s a must order. Teochew duck was tender and the sauce with it was well seasoned and not overly salty. Chilli was free flow and pairs very well with both dishes Parking can be challenging so you might need to park at a distance. Lady taking the order was polite and calm

They moved from the Sin Ming coffee shop to the current industrial location. Service seems to be faster now. Food is just as good. The salted vegetable is a little saltier than I like. But overall a really good duck rice. Drumstick is full size, therefore price is quite reasonable.

Had this on my to try list before it was featured by watermelon head but had to delayed trying due to Ryan. Anw skipped the episode so that i will have unbiased opinion, anw ordered braised duck rice $5.50 plus braised pork $1 plus salted vege duck soup for $6.80. Total $13.30. Duck: great Rice: great Braised pork: great Duck soup: excellent Lime sauce: good braised pork Amount for money: great While the duck was pretty tough i find it still reasonable as breast meat. More importantly it tasted very flavorful in a duck way and the savoury gravy just adds to the experience. Rice was individualized and dry in a good way since you are soaking with the gravy or soup. Braised pork was more on the fattier side so no issue with the tenderness and take the taste of the gravy. Overall the lime chili is more meant for the pork, i will highly recommend *not* to dip the duck to the sour sauce. While it is nice to have some acidity to cut the greasiness of the pork, the sourness is overwhelming and will just overshadow the taste and for duck you get a sour piece of tough meat. Speaking of overshadowing the gravy, it was actually a bit on the saltier side but not noticable if you dip into the sour sauce. Salted vege duck soup was excellent in the flavor complexity. Sour and peppery and a bit of savoriness. Some part of the duck leg was surprisingly still tender but most were understandably old. But nevertheless the taste is still very unique. The amount of duck meat given was alot for $5.50. Not only were there many pieces but they were large chunk of meat too! While the breast is not most tender nor the pork melts they still taste very good in an old school manner. Just a little salty. Do avoid the sour sauce to get the more authentic taste.

Hup Seng Duck Rice at Sin Ming Drive proved well worth the trip, though arriving early is highly recommended if you'd prefer to avoid a lengthy queue. We reached at 10:45am hoping to stay ahead of the crowd, and it paid off. By 11:15am, the queue had already grown to around 20 people. We ordered the duck for two, along with a small bowl of salted vegetable and duck soup to share. The duck was sliced to a thickness that struck a pleasing balance between tenderness and texture. Thick enough to provide a satisfying bite, yet not so thick that it became chewy. The braising sauce had penetrated the meat well, imparting a savoury sweetness that was further enhanced by an extra drizzle just before serving. The duck itself was tender and flavourful, with a clean, distinct duck taste. The skin provided a gentle richness without being overly fatty, complementing the meat nicely. The rice deserves mention as well. Though seemingly simple, it was cooked with care. The grains were well-defined with a slight chew to them, providing an excellent canvas for the braising gravy. Together, they were a satisfying combination. The standout, however, was the salted vegetable and duck soup. Unlike many versions that lean heavily on the salty side, this one was remarkably balanced. The salted vegetables appeared to have been properly prepared to temper their salinity, allowing the duck flavour to come through clearly. A measured dose of pepper added warmth and complexity without overwhelming everything else. The result was a deeply comforting soup with layers of savoury, peppery and duck-rich flavours. I'll certainly be returning, though likely on a weekday morning before 10:30am. Given the stall's popularity and relatively short operating hours, arriving late may mean missing out altogether. (Sorry about the picture of the soup. I tastes way better than the photo taken, and also because we attacked it the moment it was placed on the table.)

Hup Seng duck rice is situated along Sin Ming Drive and is near to Kong Meng San Monastery. It’s a popular eating place for people to go over for lunch after praying at the monastery. The braised duck is very tender and adding their braised pork belly makes it a very complete meal. I particularly love their salted vegetable duck soup as it has a great punch to the flavour. If you want to beat the crowd, try to be there at 10-11am before the huge lunch crowd hits the coffeeshop!

I first time ordering a duck rice and a salt veg duck soup is a one person set meal $12.3. Kena niamed by the lady. Ordering a bit chicken talking to duck lol. They cut the duck meat slices very nicely, meat is nice, just a bit on the salty side sauce. I prefer the original Teochew Ah Xiao. Though the salt sour duck soup is a long time never seen dish, however I don't remember it's mixed with bak kut teh peppery taste. Chill i like here soury soury . But i come once i think, unless i work around here industrial park, with the lunch time queue and end 2pm. Not very convenient. Also set meal is very full cannot finish 🙃

Visited on Sat 1pm (next morning after the Get Fed episode was out) and they were still selling, lucky. Waited 10 mins and a longer Q formed after. The duck rice was really decent - super classic rendition with the breast meat that had a bit of chew and texture to absorb the gravy. The gravy is the super star here, that duck fat really made the white rice tasty. However minus one star for the bone shards in the meat that one needs to be careful with when biting down cos I hurt my tooth on a tiny fragment. The dark soup was surprisingly peppery but light with a hint of sweetness.
