heng gi roasted goose and duck rice


these days have been seeking out the 'makan places, lost and found' food stalls featured in one of mediacorp programmes. a fortnight ago ate at heng gi goose and duck meat stall located in tekka food centre.

it is a corner stall facing rochor road, facing the former rex cinema. it is not difficult to spot this stall as it is the only one with a queue at most times. used to frequent this stall when it was at the former hill street food centre, next to the central fire station.

again, it was victor who introduced me to this stall. he used to visit jason ong who owned a computer shop at funan centre, just across the road. each time, he visited jason, he would eat at this stall.

according to victor, this stall had started at north bridge road before moving to the hill street food centre. at hill street, it occupied a corner stall on the 2nd level.

although the goose meat is seasonal, we seemed to be able to eat it every time we visited the stall.

at tekka centre, it is stall #01-406. its opening hours are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. it is closed on mondays.

the stall is rated 2 1/2 chopsticks by makansutra; translated to mean " must try, otherwise regret, lah."
