Duck King Introduction

The owner of Er Zhen Duck King, Lee Ming-tsung, was originally a chicken farmer. However, after feeling the manipulation of chicken prices by chicken dealers, which exploited the earnings of chicken farmers and left them with limited profit—especially during low price seasons where losses were common—he decisively abandoned his long-standing chicken farming career and switched to selling snacks. As someone inexperienced in selling snacks, Lee Ming-tsung had a relative in Fengshan District who sold duck noodle dishes. He traveled to learn from his relative, and with their generous guidance, he mastered the techniques for making duck noodle dishes. Upon returning home, he registered "Duck King" in Er Zhen and began his career in selling duck noodle dishes. Er Zhen Duck King primarily sells duck meat, duck intestines, duck vermicelli, and duck noodles. The duck meat at Duck King comes from local ducks that are raised for sixty-five to seventy days. After processing, the duck is marinated and then roasted in a pot without water, with the cooking controlled entirely by skill. The duck intestines are crisp and flavorful.
