Brother Kuan, where customers who come after 7pm might find themselves waiting at least five minutes for a table at this bustling venue.Brother Kuan's a fair place for a no-frills meal, with fast, friendly service.Our definitive duck hunt ends with Brother Kuan's crispy duck in a mild, watery herbal sauce; good but not great, though in this case, good is good enough.Steamed fish, spinach, roast pork & omelets all hit appealing notes. Hurray for Puchong.

Next on our fowl itinerary: Pooi Kee, where charcoal-roasted duck rules the roost.Pooi Kee offers no fewer than three types of roast duck: one swimming in a light sauce, the second sprinkled with sesame seeds & another soaked in angelica herbs.Not bad at all; drumsticks cost RM12 per plate, while half a chicken sells for RM20.Bentong-style claypot duck with ginger's also worthwhile, though the cuts seem bonier here.Veggies galore, from sour to soupy, leafy to crunchy (the beansprouts are tasty).Pooi Kee's pork is OK but not the highlight of this outlet.

Choy Hi, which is slightly less busy but still seems to have a faithful following.What's worthwhile here: Bean curd stuffed with fish paste, served steaming-hot ...... plus boneless chicken in a thick apricot sauce that's addictive even if it might be artificial ..Pei Pa roast duck; probably a B-minus in our book. The meat could have been fresher, juicier & better-tasting. Not a total fail, but not a big hit either.Choy Hi also serves steamed chicken that may or may not be from Bentong; there's a vagueness to how the food is explained here.Claypot 'water spinach' & the bounciest of fish balls wrap up our look at Choy Hi, where the hits make the misses tolerable.wild boar curry that's lip-smacking in its creamy savoriness & the beloved three-egg steamed platter that's crowd-pleasing in a can't-fail fashion.

Duck tales: Scouring Puchong for the tastiest of this neighborhood's roasted poultry, starting with probably our top pick, Soon Lok.Soon Lok's roast duck (RM42 for whole) proves that this popular restaurant is no quack; its meat is fleshy & flavorful, while its skin proves commandingly crisp, blessed with a luscious layer of fat to broaden both the waistlines & the smiles of satisfied patrons.Everything else here is convincingly executed, from the staples of siew yok & char siew ...Cabbage laced with dried shrimp for fiber, plus noodles for carbs.... to an assam shark's head platter that should appease fish fans.

Before leaving Pavilion, take the escalators four floors up to WA Cafe, where a Japanese barista has started serving this shopping mall's most satisfying coffee.Colombian Arabica beans form the foundation for WA's lovable iced latte (RM11).Also admirable: Hot matcha latte (RM10), potently aromatic with top-flight green tea... & a deeply enjoyable roasted almond hot chocolate (RM11), both not-coffee beverages that make WA Cafe more than a coffee bar, come to think of it.
