Duck Meat Hsu Beimen Branch Introduction
After more than thirty years, Duck Meat Xu has transformed from a small stall to two shops with a continuous stream of customers. Almost everything on the menu is highly praised: duck meat noodles, stir-fried offal, and various side dishes. Xu Wen-he, who grew up in Lukang, Changhua, moved to Taipei to work alone as a teenager, doing odd jobs in a hotel. He was enthusiastic about cooking, so he secretly learned from the chefs, which laid the foundation for the success of Duck Meat Xu. The restaurant's offerings are well-regarded, including duck meat noodles, stir-fried offal, and various appetizers. The owner mentions that the process of preparing the duck is quite extensive. They use fresh ducks (frozen ducks do not provide the same taste), steaming them first, then soaking them in the owner’s unique recipe developed over thirty years, and finally smoking them, a technique that is the owner's best-kept secret. The duck meat noodles require a broth made from simmering duck meat to fully extract the flavors, ensuring the meat is tender and not tough. The branches of Duck Meat Xu are located on Beimen Street, and if the main store is too crowded, you can visit one of the branches. A visit to Duck Meat Xu allows you to experience the owner's dedication and delicious food.
