Sungai Bakap is known for Chye Koey and Roast Duck. In this two street town, there are two Chye Koey & Tim Sum Restaurant in the Old Town, but there are 5 Duck Rice (Sole occupant) Restaurant in the old town within 500 meters of each other, out of the total of 10 Chinese Coffee shop in Town. That is a high 50% occupancy rate for Roast Duck Rice, and they are all doing good business.

As with the Chye Koey (in a earlier post), People will travel 50Km plus to have lunch here, for the roast duck. My personal memories of this place, come from the time of my maternal aunt, was working here in the Government Hospital as a Nursing Sister around 40 years ago. My Mum visited, I did not remembered the Chye Koey and Roast Duck.

These days there is this Duck Rice Stall I go to, Right at the cross road of the Town, Rice is serve in Bowls, Old style Coffee Shop table but with plastic chair. The Duck rice is serve with Cut Pickle Bird Eye Chill, though Chili sauce is available, along with char siew, siew bak and roast pork sausage.

Will I travel 50Km just to have lunch here? Well, even though the Roast Duck is good, I fell that I will not travel a distance, but if I am in the area, why not. Give it a try. Non Halal
