PETALING JAYA, Feb 2. — Of late, PJ SS2’s packed food scene has seen established F&B brands like Lai Foong, Taman Putra Fresh Prawn Noodles, Kopitiam 7 and Oh Yeah Kopitiam opening outlets there.

Using the bustling area as a springboard to expand their footprint into new markets, those who live nearby have been spoiled with sang har meen, beef noodles and roast duck.

Now, Hong Kong-style roast goose has debuted under the banner of Yat Gor Roasted Goose Noodle House, which took over Shanghai Street’s space along Jalan SS2/75.

The name may be unfamiliar but apparently there are links to Hong Kong Roasted Goose King through common shareholders and similar menu offerings.

The tell-all signboard may herald the magnificent bird and thin, springy noodles but this place is much more, as it offers cooked dishes ideal for family meals or even festive celebrations.

Wade through the wide variety of roast meats on offer; from goose, duck, pork, char siu and the less common suckling pig plus pigeon using imported Hong Kong birds. There’s also soy sauce chicken.

Signature Roasted Goose arrives with its glistening dark skin with tender, juicy meat underneath, served swimming in a pool of sauce that included the roasted jus from the bird.

Their version differs from the other place in Pavilion Damansara Heights, where the crisp skin takes centre stage but falters with drier meat.

While it’s not perfect, the draw is its price, substantially different compared to the Pavilion Damansara Heights place, perhaps to suit the neighbourhood and this single shop lot is probably cheaper since it is not in a shopping mall.

A whole roast goose is RM228, in comparison with RM338 from the other place. For the half portion, it’s RM128, while the quarter portion is RM88 for the lower part and RM68 for the upper part.

The surprise find was the Roasted Duck; we got in their BBQ 2 Combination for RM38.80 with Crispy Roasted Pork.

The duck sported fine, juicy meat without any of the dreaded gamey smell people avoid, making it our favourite in comparison with the decent crispy skin roasted pork.

Solo diners can opt for the Roasted Goose Rice or Noodle for RM24.80.

There’s also a value lunch set for RM20.80 for the Roasted Goose with Rice, served with soup, a tong sui dessert and tea.

Claypot Stewed Eggplant with Salted Fish & Minced Meat (RM24.80) came highly recommended and it lived up to its reputation with the pull apart eggplant mingling with that sauce which had a balanced saltiness with a savoury flavour.

A bowl of Prawn Wantans (RM12.80) was also good with those goldfish-like silky skin trailing behind the midsection of minced pork filling with a prawn.

For lunch, the place gets crowded with people opting for the set or roasted meats to share with noodles.

As the restaurant is open throughout the festive period, patrons can consider their Chinese New Year set meals, Poon Choy and Yee Sang with their homemade sour plum sauce, provided they book at least two to three days ahead.

For the Roast Suckling Pig and Roast Pigeon, at least two to three days pre-order is required, whereby the Suckling Pig is RM488 while the Roast Pigeon is RM48.
