Tee’s Peking Duck: Escaping Mall Food with a Local Roast Duck Gem

When I need a quick, satisfying meal away from the endless options at Central Ladprao and Union Mall, Tee’s Peking Duck (ตี๋เป็ดปักกิ่ง) is my go-to spot. This small, unpretentious restaurant near the main road offers a genuinely local alternative to typical mall fare.

🍽️ The Dish: Roast Duck, Not Peking Duck

The name is a bit misleading! If you’re expecting the traditional, ultra-crispy skin synonymous with Beijing’s famous Peking Duck, you’ll be surprised. The dish here is firmly a Teochew-style Roast Duck (เป็ดพะโล้), tailored perfectly to local Thai preferences:

  • The Flavor Profile: As is common with duck dishes in Thailand, the natural gamey taste is completely eradicated, resulting in tender, flavorful meat that appeals widely to the local palate.
  • The Value: At just 60 Baht for a plate of roast duck noodles, you absolutely cannot complain about the quality or the price.

🚶 The Vibe: Local, Fast, and Fresh

This spot is clearly a local favorite and maintains a steady stream of customers, from solo diners to locals picking up entire birds.

  • Steady Business: I always see a constant churn of customers, and the restaurant is known to sell out, ensuring the duck is always fresh. Locals frequently purchase half or whole ducks for takeaway.
  • The Experience: If you’re tired of generic food courts, this is a place you can easily hop to and experience authentic, quick-service Thai-Chinese cooking.

Not Your Typical Tourist

A passionate advocate for independent and solo travel, I traded life in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, for the vibrant streets of Bangkok, Thailand. This shift is all thanks to a "chance encounter" in 2009 that led to marriage with my Thai husband. I currently split my time between Bangkok (my main base) and Kuala Lumpur for family—documenting the unique blend of a Malaysian life lived abroad.
