Ambience
The entrance was marked open but I was asked to enter through Shiok Shiok instead. Since I read that ownership for both restaurants is the same, I took initiative to ask for the Tuen Mun menu already.
Food
Century Egg is always delicious. I just love the flavor! I ate each piece alternately with my main dish.
Braised Noodles with Lechon Macau and Roasted Duck was a must-try since I wanted some duck. Since they bombarded their menu with multiple braised noodle dishes, I kept my eyes on that part. It's good! Noodles were saucy and soft yet they left enough room to enjoy chewing through. Lechon skin was to die for *knock on wood* but I put aside the minimal fat it came with. Meat was tender goodness! Duck was just right in tenderness and flavor.
Service
It was quick and calling a server was convenient. Waiting time was fair and not asking for service charge motivated me to give a tip!
This hole in the wall was an unexpected discovery. The noodles with roasted duck is to die for! Sometimes they run out of duck, though. Their lechon macau is also good.
best spareribs and asado...... roasted duck in quezon city..... white and soy chicken is also good..... small place.... around 6 tables but place is clean
Tuen Mun Roasts is the Chinese roasting portion, easy identifiable with the hanging meats on their storefront. They're known for their roast duck, pork Asado and lechon Macau, among others, which you can enjoy with rice if you're eating solo, or in large, sliced portions for sharing with family.
I had their Soy Chicken Rice meal for lunch, which takes inspiration from the Hainanese Chicken. The chicken was tender and very meaty, but came with a light and sweet soy glaze that set it apart from its Singaporean counterpart. It even came with a ginger sauce— sinfully oily and loaded with more spring onions than ginger, yet salty all the same. The plate didn't come with the oily chicken rice, but this was fine since the chicken was flavorful enough as it was.
Craving for HK roast? I discovered Tuen Mun today and it was perfect! They offer both dine-in and takeaway - where service is hella fast (it should be, they just chop the meats up)
We ordered the following:
- Jellyfish and century egg combo: LOVE the jellyfish. I thought the century egg had an aftertaste... But to be fair, a lot of century eggs have an aftertaste
- Soy chicken: soft, with a delectable soy sauce. Surprisingly, this was my favorite dish here! Next time, I'll try the white chicken - which is supposed to be highly recommended as well
- Lechon macau: Love the Crispy skin! However I do wish they made the cuts thinner as the meat itself tasted rather dry, which was overwhelmingly obvious in the bigger cuts
- Roast asado: I wanted to purchase the premium cuts version, but they had run out. Anyway, I still liked it, although some were a bit fatty!
- Roast duck: they're famous for this, but I found it gummy. I know this is typical for duck but meh. You'll have to judge for yourself because I'm clearly biased against
Overall, a good experience with decent prices given the serving size (each one was shareable for 3 pax).
Roasted Duck, Asado, and Lechon Macau are my go-to at Tuen Mun! The place is okay, more on eat and go type of place but the food is worth it and affordable.
Curious about this place and was craving for their noodles at the same time so I head straight to Banawe and tried this place.
It was a simple place but the food is so good!
I’d go back here to try their other dishes.
Natikman ko na yung Asado.. Ang sarap! Singko! :)
Sige na nga mag review na din ako dito kasi worthy naman kahit masikip yung lugar nila, pwede naman maupo sa Shiok Shiok e. :) Inintroduce to sakin ng dati kong boss at para sakin eto yung the best White Chicken na natikman ko! Malasa pa din yung manok kahit walang nung oil/sibuyan na mura sauce pero mag meron na, party! Nanghihingi pa ko ng extrang oil kasi nilalagay ko sya sa kanin. :) Okay na okay din yung Lechon Macau nila at Soy Chicken. Pag nakabalik ako dito titikman ko na yung Asado nila at kung yung lasa nun e yung hinahanap kong lasa ng classic Chinese Asado, singko ito! :)
Actual rating: 3.9
This is a good place for your peking duck, lechon macau, and asado roastings. Quality is really good, at a really cheap (relatively) price.
All their roastings are generally not fatty. They’re not too lean as well. They strike the perfect balance of protein and fat.
Peking duck is tender and juicy throughout. Marinated well too! Lechon macau has really crispy pork skin and the pork meat is also tasty. The asado is not the best around, but still good since it’s juicy and seasoned well.
Their main strength would be that their meat is not dry, most restaurants fail at that. This is a good place to take out food for your family on the way home, especially if you’re gonna celebrate Mom’s birthday at home. What’s a better way than having pecking duck, right?
Service can be improved.
PS: You can order from Eat Fresh and Shiok Shiok here as the three are owned by one management only.
Easily the closest thing to roastings of HK The white chicken specially captured the HK taste The ribs are good. The char siu is a little tough though
I love their roast duck. They always provide me with my requests which is very accomodating. Pairing their food with fresh fruit shakes/juice is best.
Cross ordering with Shiok Shiok is also allowed so you can enjoy their desserts as well.
This is actually a sister company of eat fresh if I am not mistaken and is also very famous in the area due to their asado and soy chicken. Since I am already in the area, I decided to order a takeaway meal of asado to sample at home since I am so full from our dinner meal nearby. Their asado is really good I must say. So flavorful.
