Came by Johor for a business trip. That night I was looking for dinner when I found many recommendations online that I should try the Skudai Duck. Lucky for me, the opening hours of this restaurant is until 9pm.
First thing I noticed when I found the restaurant is how traditional the restaurant looked. It still maintains the old school style, most likely unchanged for decades.
They have a huge picture of the famous ho chiak food reviewer with probably the founder/owner of the restaurant. I suppose it is their source of pride and recognition of this restaurant.
Interior of the restaurant. Note the amount of chilli sauce which is used to be served with the duck. They also sell some local produce in this restaurant such as biscuits, snacks and even fresh banana.
Braised Duck
I ordered their braised duck which is their signature dish. I was given a choice of noodles or rice. I rarely have noodles at night so I opted for the rice instead.
Their service is quite fast, probably because of the lack of customers in the restaurant that night. The food arrived very quickly. The duck actually tastes very well as it was full of flavour and taste. However, I find that the meat is too thinly sliced, which does not give me the full satisfying bite of the duck meat.
The rice served was oily rice, which goes quite well with the duck.
Braised Egg
Apart from the duck, I also ordered a couple of eggs as well. Their eggs were well flavoured with the taste and aroma of the gravy, most likely cooked together with their duck.
All in all, a good meal, although I would have preferred a thicker cut on the duck.
