Residents staying around Hong Fu Ling 81 Eating House all know about Tian Cheng Charcoal Roasted which sells smoky roast meats. The prices of the meats are rather affordable, which is a plus point! We had the Char Siew Roasted Pork Noodle ($4.50), and the Roasted Duck Rice ($3.50).

The roast pork was amazing. I especially love how crispy the skin was. The meat was tender and oh-so-flavourful. However, it wasn’t as fatty as I thought it would be. But, that means I can stuff my face with it without feeling super guilty.

The char siew definitely had that distinctive smokiness of charcoal. I felt that the meat was a little dry though. It was definitely a lot leaner than expected. Maybe it’s because we visited the stall later in the day, and most of the fattier cuts have been sold.

The Roasted Duck Rice featured cuts of duck that were glistening. The skin, especially, looked so enticing. The meat was again, quite a lean cut. I really enjoyed the natural flavours of the duck that have been enhanced by the smokiness of charcoal.

The sambal chilli complemented it all very well. On the side of the plate sat a small serving of pickled vegetables, instead of the usual raw cucumbers. I think that’s really smart as the slightly sour vegetables help to cut through the richness of the meat and at the same time, cleanse your palate.

I definitely recommend the roast pork here. And, if you come earlier in the day, the smoky char siew will be worth a try as well.
