正斗潮州滷鵝


Gave in to one meal of braised goose (滷鵝). We visited friends at their home in Sai Wan for snacks and drinks. Then we decided to pop down the street for a quick supper before heading back to the hotel. Skipped the long queue at Sheung Hei Claypot Rice「囍煲仔小菜」and went across to正斗潮州滷鵝」.

The man couldn't resist a whole plateful of innards- liver, gizzard and intestines. I thought they were a bit... smelly. Hahahaha. I can't quite manage innards except a select few in specific cooking methods, say, grilled chicken hearts, sambal paru, peppery pig stomach soup, and that's about it. I don't touch pig's intestines, chicken gizzards or whatever sweetmeats.

No regrets for this meal. The table ordered individual plates instead of sharing plates. Easier lah. This eatery is tiny and caters mainly to takeouts. I had breast meat with the pickles, salted vegetables, tofu and braised egg. The skin was a tad gamey for me, so I pushed those aside. Otherwise, it was an extremely satisfying meal. Again, a sambal belchan of sorts would have been very nice. Hahahah.
