The first time I came I wasn't overly impressed and was trying to figure out what all the hype was about. The first time I came, I had roast pork over rice and they added their sauce on top. I felt it was salty and quite fatty and generally I don't prefer having sauce on top of my roasted meats so it just didn't do much for me.
I was in the area for a doctor's appointment so I decided to try again. As I was browsing pictures beforehand, I was already salivating and super excited. This time I ordered the Roast Goose and BBQ Pork over rice ($57), and made sure to ask for no sauce. The worker there made sure to let me know that if I chose duck instead of goose it would only be $27, but I had already decided beforehand I wanted to try the goose. It was great that he warned everybody ordering the goose that they could get the combo with the duck for $27 (I think non-combos also cost the same at $27). I also got a soup, too.
Soup: I thought it tasted fine. Getting soup from Chinese restaurants always gives me that homemade nostalgic feeling. I would get the soup again.
Goose: I thought the goose tasted fine. To me, goose tastes like a meatier version of duck, but was fine for me. Personally may not be worth the $30 to change from duck to meat since I find them similar. For others apparently they know better than me and can taste more of a difference, so unless I feel like having a change of pace, I am fine with sticking with duck.
BBQ Pork: This is where the winner was. The pork was soooo juicy and very good flavor and level of sweetness. The edges were a bit charred, but in a good way that gave the BBQ Pork more flavor. The meat was a little fatty but I think it may have been needed so that the pork would be juicier.
I feel like I still have moments when I crave for that BBQ Pork. This is a big deal, because generally if I have the option at a roast meat place, I usually pick roast pork, but not in this case.
Tip: It does get quite crowded at lunch, so you may have to try a non-peak time to reduce the wait.
