Fowl on a Budget :A whole roast duck for 15 bucks? Believe it!

Amidst the talk about the rising cost of living, there are still bargains out there if you look hard enough. The flatted factories in Ubi house wholesalers where you can get cheap food stuffs. One such wholesaler is Yan Chuan Roaster Centre where you can get a whole roast duck for only S$15. Compare this to prices outside where half a duck already costs S$17 and you know what a great bargain this is. But of course at this price, it's a no frills setup where you go to takeaway.

The duck is quite large and as you can see from the picture above, the skin is reddish.
Taste verdict: More importantly, how does it taste?  The meat is quite tender (not tough) and evenly flavoured. The skin is not crispy and cannot be compared to those from famous stalls but is pleasant to eat. The sambal chilli that they give complements the meat well. No complaints here, considering what you get for the price, it is excellent value for money!
