Duck Meat Hsu Beimen Branch Introduction
After more than thirty years, Duck Meat Hsu has evolved from a small stall to two stores with a steady stream of customers. The dishes here have earned an excellent reputation: duck meat noodles, stir-fried intestines, and various side dishes. Hsu Wen-He, who grew up in Lugang, Changhua, moved to Taipei to work alone in his teenage years, taking a job at a hotel. He was fascinated by cooking, and thus secretly learned by observing the chefs, laying the foundation for the success of Duck Meat Hsu. Most dishes here are well-regarded, including duck meat noodles, stir-fried intestines, and various side dishes. The owner mentions that the process of preparing duck meat is quite elaborate. Freshly slaughtered duck (frozen duck lacks the right texture) is first steamed, then immersed in the unique sauce that the owner has perfected over thirty years, and finally smoked—a method that is the owner's closely guarded secret for success. The duck meat noodles are made using a broth that is boiled down from the essence of the duck meat, ensuring that the flavors are rich and the meat is tender, not tough. The branches of Duck Meat Hsu are located on Beimen Street, so if the main store is too crowded, you can visit one of the branches. A visit to Duck Meat Hsu will allow you to experience the owner's dedication and delicious flavors.
