Air Itam Duck Rice — Air Itam, Penang

About

Beloved braised duck rice stall run by a mother-son duo in the Air Itam Wet Market on Jalan Pasar — a neighbourhood favourite for those seeking classic Teochew-style braised duck (lor ark). The duck is slow-braised in a fragrant soy sauce, five spice, and galangal master stock until it becomes deeply flavoured and fork-tender, served over steamed white rice with house-made chilli sauce, braised tofu, and a bowl of clear braising broth. A humble but consistently executed duck rice beloved in the Air Itam community. Non-halal.
