Cheung Hing Restaurant

Service was rude the second time we came. The lady at the cashier spent her time talking to her friend and complaining about how the customers before us didn’t follow the “ordering etiquette” therefore slowed down her work. An easy remedy would be you stop talking and get back to work? In terms of the food, we especially loved the roast duck. The skin is glossy and crispy. We tried the double roast combo on rice and got roast duck and roast pork.

This place is awesome- very delicious Chinese BBQ. We sat down to eat here on a Saturday afternoon and there was no wait for dine in. There was a pretty long line for take out, however. I ordered a bowl of noodle soup with BBQ pork on top. Very tasty. Service was a little slow but they were slammed. Very cheap as well- think my huge bowl cost $8.

The best roast duck at SF. Juicy but not greasy, soft but with crisp skin. There are two kinds of roast pork. One is pork belly and the other is less fat meat. The photos are the less fat one. They are really juicy, not dry, and mouthful flavors.

Wow. This roast duck is the king of roast ducks. No inside seating and no parks or benches near by to eat. So if you’re like me with no wheels you’ll be eating on the steps of a near by church. The duck is so juicy and succulent it doesn’t even make any sense. The 5 spice shines through like a west coast sunset in July. I love this place!

Delicious. Their ducks are definitely larger and contains slight more fat then other restaurants I've tasted. VERY JUICY! We had roasted duck porridge (it's just duck on porridge, and HK/Cantonese also very good at making fine porridge, it was very tasty! The juice and oil of the duck mixed into the bowl... yum), and 3 mix rice (duck, script skin BBQ pork, and duck liver) this was delicious too! The rice was well cooked and the meat were put on top, so the juice will go into the rice! Also this dish will have a little bit of veggie to go with. I wish I could have taken one whole duck togo. It was that good!

Deli Cantonese style steamed and roasted chickens, and roasted pigs and BBQ sweet pork, etc along with rice, noodles and chow fun. Good to eat, open 365/7/12. Started at 9am daily.

Greasy table top Chinese food place right across from a Safeway. Cramped, authentic, but great food. A majority of the customers were lined up out the door to buy the food for the butcher to cut up. We ordered and sat down in the restaurant (about 4 tables) so we didn't try the butchered meat. I ordered my favorite dish, the beef chow fun.

$30 for whole duck is ok, but the duck is on the skinny not a lot of meat side. The BBQ pork was mostly dry too. The squid was decnt.

Best place for Duck if you can't go to Chinatown. I think it's better than Chinatown tbh. Lots of options for parking. Best deal is for a whole duck, but the duck plate is great for a quick lunch. Half duck also available Call ahead to make sure they have not sold out. And definitely get a bag. It's very juicy so the bag is a must.

Roast duck. $34 Under seasoned. I ate it in the car with no water. I still feel it is not salty. Does not pass my asian taste test.

We picked up a whole duck, barbecue pork and roast pork this trip. The duck was good but not the best that we ever had. The sauce was poured over the duck but should be placed in a small plastic container or like in Asia (in a small plastic bag). The sauce leaked onto our bag. For $34.00 I hoped they would know better to separate the sauce from spilling out. The duck container is not that big to hold the whole duck and sauce. The barbecue pork was tasty but a little too fatty for. my taste. I asked for a lean piece but he said they all have fat on them. The piece of roast pork was lean and tasty.

I love coming here for their crispy pork and duck. This is a great place for her to go or a quick lunches when you're at home they do plates with rice. The service is pretty fast but on holiday there is definitely a long line for bbq meats. The other dishes, you can order by the plate like chicken wings, but I normally just get the barbecue meats. They're really small restaurant and there's maybe two tables but if you're just taking it to go, it should be quick and easy.

I've been to other locations and this location has the same, great consistency. The honey walnut prawns were tasty! The prawn were fried and coated in their delicious mayo sauce. I normally enjoy the dish with everything mixed together in the sauce but they kind of separated the walnuts and the prawns in their version. The Peking pork was delicious! The meat was coated in the sweet and sour sauce and were very tender.

This is a take out restaurant! It's no fuss, quick service, and simple meals, which I can definitely get down with. The inside of the store is simple, but the food is stand out. I only wish that prices were a little clearer for ordering rice dishes. The BBQ pork (char siu) is amazing here. Hands down, I enjoyed every single bite of these flavor packed, juicy morsels. The sauce they put over their rice as well as the stir fry vegetables they add to their rice plates make for a perfectly balanced, filling meal. I felt the chicken feet was a little too salty after I accidentally finished my rice early, but for what I paid, the portion of meat I got was extremely satisfying considering the epicurean economy nowadays.

This used to be my go-to spot for roast duck! Since I'd last been here in 2018, the price for the Roast / Peking Duck has nearly doubled. Bummer.  Cheung Hing is a no-frills Chinese BBQ spot with quick, to-the-point service. The duck skin is fatty and savory, and while there's plenty of meat, the meat is a bit dry and gamey. (Where did all the meat juice go?!) It definitely needed extra sauce.  Maybe their other BBQ meats would've been a better option. I'll have to find out on my next visit! Credit cards have an additional charge, so don't forget to bring cash.

I'm debating if this should be a 4 or 3 star review. I've bought roast duck here many times in past years. They were my go-to for roast duck. It was always juicy and mouth-watering good. These last few times seem different. Did they switch chefs ? It was still kinda good but didn't quite have that magic touch. Was it because they didn't pour the juice back on after chopping the duck? I'm not certain. To top it off, I'm a little irritated they nickel and dime you -- to charge an additional $0.50 for plum sauce when you're spending $34 to buy a full duck. I give the duck 3.5 stars (it used to be 5 stars hands-down). The roast pork is still very tasty. They run about $15/lb. The skin had a nice crunch and the meat was juicy and tender. It's a bit fatty but that contributes positively to the taste and texture. 4 stars for the roast pork. I brought this to a party. My friends loved the roast pork and the duck -- with more compliments for the pork.

What happened to you Cheung Hing? You used to be my favorite. You used to be my go-to recommendation for everyone who asks me where the best duck is. I even came here multiple times before I wrote this review to make sure you're not having an off day, but unfortunately, the last 3 times were off days. Let's start off with the elephant in the room. Overpriced duck, $21 for a half, and like $34 for a whole. Ridiculously priced. Sauce, bag, all extra charges. I'm seriously tired of being nickel and dimed. Onto the duck. No more crunchy crispy skin. Instead, we have soggy skin. The duck is not even Luke warm, it's cold from sitting in the window with little or no turnover. No wonder there's no line here anymore. The duck is missing is umami flavor, crispy skin, and just overall delicious taste has gone away. Looks like brand new people and a new chef too. You've had the last of my business.

Roast duck was delicious but the rice, taste like it was a day old and cold. Had to nuke the rice when I got home.

I like this place. I really do. But it's a messed up practice to give the abc all the junky junk parts of a meat. I get it. Old ladies complain for the best cuts. But why did my lbs of meat come with entirely ends? Every single piece is a weird shape, not uniform cut, and an end piece. If I order the bbq pork, you would expect 2 ends and all center slices. I got ALL END pieces cut weird. It's a horrible practice. Please stop. The young guy is really nice and helps with ordering. Very clear with prices. Nice guy. But the meat cutter needs to let go of the scumbag practice of giving unknowing customers the worst cuts.

Roast duck is very meaty & tasty!! Very fair price at $34 for a whole duck. FYI 3% CREDIT CARD FEE - bring cash if possible, or debit card. Not super friendly service, but I guess service doesn't need to be amazing haha. Went in & out in 5 minutes for our roast duck!

I haven't been here since when covid kinda effed everything, not to mention when that car ran into the front and they had to limit sales to those who waited outside the plywood storefront. But my memory of highest quality roast duck and various other meaty items reminded me it was time to check the action in that neighborhood way out on Noriega. It was time to go back and makes me wonder even more about myself (along with numerous cross purpose tics and absentminded sounds I seem destined to repeat until my last moments): WHY I waited so long to go back. The roast duck is outstanding, better than the Peking version. Also try the (depending on availability) cuttle fish, duck liver, pig stomach, char siu, etc etc. Also was amazed at how much better were the markets in those 2 or 3 blocks, compared with those on outer Irving and inner Clement. Worth the drive.

After looking through the comments, parking seems difficult so we decided to walk there. We called in for our order. You don't have to wait in line. I was looking for duck that was not too fatty. Both roast duck dishes have a lot of fat. The seasoning was just right, not salty. The beef stew noodle was something that I would order again. Because we walked, the noodle got very soggy. The beef parts that they provided were too chewy (impossible to bite off) and fatty. Sad! I didn't try the pork though. If I come back, I will just try out pork and see how it goes.

The duck is your star here. I haven't had much of anything else except the tofu. I always get the whole duck and tofu. Really enjoy it. The people are gruff just the way I like it: reminds me of the decade plus I lived in China. Walk in order pay and leave. There is no menu you just point to what you want and they box it up. Not a lot of pillow talk going on here. Anyways you're here for the duck not a handy.

Came here last weekend thinking this place might be affiliated to the location in Millbrae. We thought the food was decent but not as good as we were hoping for. The quality was alright but they did give good portions. I did also ask for a lean cut of bbq pork and they were nice about accommodating that. I'd probably try take here once more to decide if they're worth keeping in the rotation.

Absolute fire! Best roast duck over rice I've ever had. Duck was super tender and flavorful and although you don't get as much meat as other places, it more than makes up for it. You can see the juices glistening through the photo. Do not sleep on Noriega!

On Father's Day, my family decided to treat me to a new dim sum experience and chose this fantastic spot in Milpitas, just 17 miles from our home. The food was exceptional, with a delightful variety of dim sum that exceeded our expectations. The service was warm and attentive, making our visit even more enjoyable. We're so grateful for this wonderful meal and the memorable experience. Thank you for making our Father's Day special!

Chinese BBQ. Great roasted pork in the city and also best value. We usually order 2lbs which will last 4-5 meals between me and my partner. FOOD: 4/5 Roast pork is where it's at. The pieces are marinated just right, fresh, with crispy skin. We've also tried their roast duck, siu mai, and green beans which were not memorable in their own right. SERVICE: 5/5 friendly, prompt, and no fuss. AMBIANCE: It's an older establishment and it shows but for a place that is primarily take out, this is almost irrelevant to their rating. There is usually a line forming out the door. Parking is decent.

When you get a hankering for no-frills, tasty, juicy, and generous Hong Kong style Chinese roast duck or barbecued pork, look no further than Cheung Hing. This branch is the OG and you can't miss it with a line out the door. I love the roast duck over rice with cabbage and side of plum sauce.

I was craving duck, so we came here to get a whole order of Peking ($34). So good and succulent, lots of meat and skin with a bit of bones to maneuver. We also got the beef chow fun with gravy! Very tasty and flavorful. No weird flavors. Also got a white rice to wash it all down.

Classic hole in the wall. Come here if you want legit Chinese meats served in a straightforward, efficient manner and priced at a great value. It's takeout only, and there's no ambience or uber friendly customer service to speak of. But that's fine, this place operates with the understanding that we just want to get our food quickly and move on with our day. Everyone's on the same page. My family's been coming here for maybe 20 years now. This is such a staple in Outer Sunset. My other go-to value eatery, Loi's Pho on Irving, recently closed, so I hope this place sticks around for a long, long time. We get the Cha Shao (those red BBQ pork slices) alone or roast pork over rice (Sieu Yuk Fan). If you're just getting a meal, you don't have to wait in line and can just walk up to the counter. Have cash ready so you can be in and out! The one star off is because the roast pork skin isn't always crispy - and yet the skin is the reason we get it :( So yeah, be prepared for some inconsistency. Oh, and you probably need a bit of luck with parking, since that street can get a bit chaotic (though still not as bad as Irving haha).

If you want good Cha Sieu and Sieu Yuk, this is the place to go. Been coming here since I was a kid so I do have a bias towards the flavor but I feel like they have just the right amount of spices. There is a line most times but if you have food this good, its worth the wait. Something to note is that the cashiers are bilingual. Seriously, come here and support one of the best meat local businesses.

推荐: 三拼饭，粥品， 下次试试点菜 看到别人吃上汤菠菜感觉很亲切。 酒店推荐的外卖店15美金起送，想来想去，还是堂食好吃。来了之后，发觉生意很好，店铺很大一点都不是小门面，上菜快 门口可停车，味道正宗，量很大，人均10-15美金，性价比可。色色一一。

Located in a neighborhood community is small deli-like. Around 5pm there was a line outside to enter. But it goes fast. The roasted duck was flavorful and fresh. Chop -Chop, Box. No fuss. The restaurant is small but it's only take-out , no dine-in. Service was friendly and helpful.

Worst BBQ I've ever had in San Francisco ，Very bad。 Worst BBQ I've ever had in San Francisco ，Very bad。

Ordered about 1 week in advance Total number of adults: 35 Lunch: party trays only (had a separate table with chips/salsa and fruit/dessert - not ordered from here) Ordered: (Medium) BBQ Pork Fried Rice - 4/5 (about 1/4 left over) (Small) Vegetable Chow Mein - 2/5 (was quite bland, 2/3 left over) (Medium) Shredded Pork Chow Mein - 2/5 (was quite bland, 1/3 left over) (Medium) Combination Vegetable with Bean Curd - 3/5 (broccoli, carrot, wood ear mushroom, rice noodle, not a lot of tofu/bean curd, none left over) (Small) Dry Fried String Bean - 4/5 (none left over) (Medium) Sesame Chicken - 2/5 (wouldn't order this again, batter was too thick, 1/2 left over) (Medium) Pork Chop with Spicy Salt - 4/5 (1/3 left over) (Medium) Mongolian Beef - 3/5 (flavor and beef was good but 60% of the dish was onion, none left over)

As the pandemic wound down, or more accurately, became absorbed into our daily lives, I noticed many takeout places that used to be readily available to me sadly disappeared. This is one of them, and I can understand why as it's on the other side of the city from me. However, that still makes me pensive since it offered the kind of poultry comfort I like. They offered the proverbial sure thing, the $15.95 Two-Item BBQ Combination Platter where I got to choose my two favorite birds, Steamed Chicken and Roast Duck, delicious and all chopped up in uniform pieces (photo: https://bit.ly/3QKUiAX). That seemed to be their signature cooking technique as the $13.95 Salt and Pepper Squids came the same way, this one deep-fried and quite abundant (photo: https://bit.ly/3iGu7yP). I guess I needed a vegetable, the $12.95 Eggplant with Garlic, again uniformly chopped and this tray bathing in quite a bit in oil (photo: https://bit.ly/3CUXuEG). Still good though. Subsequent to the decision to restrict their delivery area, I walked by this small spot on Noriega bustling with business. It didn't look like they offered indoor dining, so I'll need to figure out if I have the forbearance to carry a takeout order all the way home. Probably worth it. FOOD - 4 stars...all my favorite poultry on the chopping block AMBIANCE - n/a...hey, I had it delivered SERVICE - 4 stars...the chopping was done by a pro, for sure TOTAL - 4 stars...gee, I miss their two-bird combo RELATED - Exploring the Sunset? Here's a collection of places I've visited and reviewed: http://bit.ly/2EI8eIJ

I ordered an hour ahead online, got there earlier, no one spoke English, only the Chinese speaking customers were helped, I gave the lady my name and order and had a sit to wait for it. Another woman was also trying to get service and sat at a table for a very long time, frustrated that the lady wasn't helping her either. The lady kept disappearing into the back. When she finally came back over to me she had no recollection of me or my order. I went to get a refund and low and behold my order had been sitting on the counter for God only knows how long. I have NEVER felt the need to write a review, but this place was horrible!!!!!!! And now I have to get a refund through my credit card. Extremely unhappy!!!!!!!!!!

Ordered party trays for a work event and it was so worth it. Lots of food for the large trays and everyone complemented the food. They were willing to make vegetarian fried rice for a lower price than their bbq pork rice. Would order again!

A bit run down, they prefer cash (3% up charge with card) Call ahead, great place for casual take out authentic quality Chinese food

We went there on Christmas day for our roast duck. The line went out the door--not, as we would soon find out, because Cheung Hing is a tiny place (there's no seating whatsoever; this is a take-out only situation). It's simply damn good. During our visit, we were the only non-Asians on the premises, but don't let that intimidate you: the staff is super attentive and helpful if you have questions, and we soon returned home with the most succulent and flavorful duck you could wish for--at a very reasonable price. The sides on offer are very good (we opted for the braised green beans), and some dessert is also available, but Cheung Hing is clearly all about the roast meats. The place may not look impressive, and you'll have to devour your feast elsewhere, but the flavors speak for themselves. We'll be back.

This place had really good pricing for catering trays for Xmas Eve. We preordered (this is key because the lines were super long that day) and they were right on time. Food was great and everyone raved about it! Esp the salt and pepper pork chops! I adore the son who was helping out that busy day and he killed it with his kindness to everyone in line (he helped carry out my trays!). He was fast and speedy too, getting everyone's orders quickly in English and Chinese. I couldn't help but hope my kids would be as helpful as him when they grow up! I'll be back to support this small family business!

Again, I have ordered 30 times plus from them but not so much recently. Food is solid but then even when I ordered pure veggies like beef and broccoli or rock cod with peppers. They have times of hit/missed with their peppers not in good quality and tasted bitter also occasionally way too heavy handed on salt and MSGs. They have mixed up my order with scrambled eggs and fried eggs before. They were nice to offer exchanges but I don't have time to drive there, that's why I order take out and don't want any issues like this. But appreciate them willing to make things right. The roasted duck is pricey now but very good, let me just say that the fact that the ducks come on the leaner side is good for your heart and cholesterol and they are likely to have plenty of exercise so they maybe freely roamed. Mind you about the cost of living and inflation in SF so hence all the concerns from other guests on price increases. No comment on their ambiance since it is not the type of restaurant I would go and sit inside. Service is fine for my experience, always willing to work with you and I even have called them to turn on UberEats when I see them "on" via DoorDash but "off" on UberEats, they gladly accommodated me and helped with my savings between the two platforms. Portions are gigantic which I appreciate especially on my favorite, salt fish, chicken with fried rices. They also accommodate with my request to pay more for a higher price adjustment for more chickens. Except I am now don't well with cholesterols so no more excessive rice or even just rice in general for me. Sad. But not about the restaurant just me mostly. Give them a try and see for yourself.

Ever happened to you that you came in for a specific dish but ended up with something new and great? Roasted pork was on my list but the pork belly (PB) 梅菜扣肉 with preserved pickled muster green blew everything away! Definitely a super time-consuming dish. Dealing with the hair on the pork skin, then deep fry it till it has this beautiful winked skin that can absorb lots of great juice. Preparing the muster greens and the sauce. Steam it for a few hours till the fat is melting and the muster green super tender. Eating the muster green alone is going to cost you a few bowls of rice. Everything about this is done right here and has become addictive. I live in Oakland and was in SF for an errand a Thursday. The same Sunday I was showing up again to purchase 3 portion of pork bellies because my friend got addicted too. Trust me, you don't need to know the rest.

My go to place for Chinese BBQ. Sometimes it's a hit or a miss especially with the bbq pork. I like the fatty pieces and sometimes it's so dry. The duck is fairly consistent. The prices are definitely more than others but I still think it's better than any other in the area. There isn't a sit down dining area anymore. They also have a full menu you can order from beyond bbq. They're also cheaper if you pay by cash but they do take cards with an additional fee.

Tasty BBQ here. Right across the street from Safeway. We ordered a half roast duck $21.00, and 1/2 pound of crispy pork, $7.50 plus two small containers, one for string beans and the other for tofu with veggies. I must say the roast duck was juicy and flavorful. Roast crispy pork was good too. Both sides were good too. $42 can feed four, just add your own rice. Parking: tight, bring a quarter for 20 mins parking.

Food: 4/5 Service: 3.5/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Overall: The food is solid! The extended review... Food: Roast Duck - 4/5 - So tasty and most of all the meat wasn't dry. Crispy Roast Pork - 5/5 - OK...this was really good. I can't say there is a Chinese place that has impressed me but this one takes the cake. The crispy skin really helps to give texture to the well seasoned pork. Green Beans - 3.5/5 - A little bit heavy on the gravy but pretty standard fare. Service: 3.5/5 - Standard service for a Chinese place. Ambiance: 3/5 - It's your normal Chinese butcher ambiance.

Great roasted duck but more recently, it seems like the ducks are getting smaller or the boxes are getting bigger! Extra $0.25 if you want the duck sauce in a sauce container. Otherwise the default is they pour the sauce over the duck, making it easier to spill in the car. Their cha siu is alright, not too saucy. Pro Tip: bring your own plastic bag so you don't need to buy one and you don't have to worry about any spillage going home.

My go-to place for roasted duck and bbq items in the sunset. They also have a variety of other noodles and dishes, but my family's favorite it just ordering the duck and scrambled egg & prawn chow fun.

It's honestly kind of sad to see how horribly CH went downhill. Gone are the lines out the door on a weekend and in are the skimpy slices of meat filled with mostly bones or shards of bones from cutting improperly and large amounts of straight up duck fat. Not to mention they charge for EVERYTHING, the sauces, the bag, would not be surprised if they started charging for the box. Growing up in the outer sunset, my family and I used to always get our cooked meats here; our favorite was their roast duck and we'd get it every single occasion. The staff also used to be a lot nicer and approachable; now they're really just trying to get you in and out without caring much about how much you actually ordered (estimate is way off and more than I requested but I'd have to pay since they're trying to hustle me out), and without asking what type of cut you'd like, nor did I barely even get to see what kind of meat I even wanted to order. Prices are similar to that of everywhere else. Overall just super rushed with really bad service; makes me think maybe they changed owners as it seems most people have similar experiences as I did? Either way, I don't think I will be back soon. Go down a few blocks and Fung Wong has the better prices, better staff, and even better roast duck!

Dishonest to customers is a big no-no! There will be consequences. I bought a roast duck (whole) for $30.00 from Cheung Hing Restaurant this evening. When I got home and opened the box, I was shocked to see mostly fat/bony duck parts, duck back, neck, head, ... half a drumstick, NO duck breast! Apparently, the man doing the cut/chopping stole the duck breast and lean parts from my duck and added some fat/bony parts from another duck to make up the quantity. The counter was high enough that customers could not see what's happening behind on the chopping board. I did recall after he cut the duck, he came up with two boxes, one passed to me, another one he passed it to another man next to him. Whoever ate stolen duck parts from other customers should be ashamed! Whoever cheats on customers will get punished sooner or later! It could happen to unsuspecting customers. I will never come back to this restaurant.

It's definitely five stars for the roast duck. It was juicy, perfectly seasoned, fat but not too fat with crispy skin. The lady sold me a very small container of sauce which I didn't use. The duck didn't need anything more. I can't believe I finished a whole duck in three days. So yummy. Why only three stars? The roast pork sucked: dry and a a bit salty. The chicken feet needed a little more brown sugar. Also, I asked for a pound and got 1.4 lbs. It was a surprise that whatever amount the sales lady put in the container was what I had to buy and pay for. I also bought two of the sticky rice in lotus leaves. It's in the freezer so I have no verdict on it. They don't have plates if you wanted to eat in the car. The only option is a to go box which is an additional charge of 25 cents.

I walked by there over the weekend and I was just showing up when they ran out of bbq pork, oh no! Not to worry, I went by there today a little earlier and picked up a healthy serving ($12/lb), super fast. They had a bunch of other neat stuff there too - Duck, Princess Chicken, Squab, anywas I was only there for the Char Siu. It delivered for sure, delicious! Not too fatty, no weird pieces, seriously good. Highly recommend. It has zero ambiance, do not plan to eat in either, its takeout only AFAIK. There will also be a line that is mildly indeterminate but its worth waiting it out.

Super good, affordable eats! I wish I spoke the language so I can get better servings, lol! Definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for a fast snak... they don't have seating, just for your information! Avoid lunch hr and dinner time it gets packed!

Pretty good takeaway roast duck, decently priced and not too boney. Would definitely come back to try other roast meats.

First time here but I don't plan to return. This restaurant was recommended to us by our friend, but wish I read the bad reviews here first before going. Ordered two pounds of roast pork and char siu to bring home for my family. I regret not opening the box in front of them to check before I left. My mom said the roast pork obviously looked like they are from two different pieces, some look stale and old. The meat cutter must have switched a few pieces from the leftover. For the char siu, I saw the meat cutter cutting the char siu for the lady before me very nicely, thinly sliced, etc. But not for my order, I can't tell if he also switched some leftover meat for my order. Is this how they make money? Selling day(s)? old meat to their customers? I agreed to buying the meat they showed me not whatever leftovers they gave me. Oh and the bbq isn't particularly good. I definitely have had better. Never again!

My dad ordered half roasted duck comes with whole duck head and neck, weight more than half of the whole duck and charge more, cheating on the elderly.

One of our go to places to get roast duck. Skin in crispy and meat is tender and juicy. Duck isn't too fatty which we prefer (we don't eat the fat). They pour the sauce all over so you'll definitely need a bag to transport. Their plum sauce tastes different from other places we have tried and my bf loves it. A little fermented almost and less sweet.
