[PROMO Alert] Lao Beijing’s S$88++ Roast Duck Set Is a Worthwhile Feast for Four

Chinese food lovers, you would not want to miss this.

Lao Beijing is currently offering its Ultimate Roast Duck Indulgence Set at S$88++ for four people, available for lunch and dinner from Mondays to Fridays for a limited time. We tried the set with the optional Hot and Sour Soup and added the restaurant’s signature Awesome Flaming Pineapple Beef (S$36).

The meal starts with Cherry Tomato infused with Roselle and Smashed Cucumber with Sesame Oil, Garlic and Chili, followed by Stir-fried Kai Lan with Minced Garlic.

The tomatoes bring a mild sweetness and refreshing acidity, while the cucumber provides a cooling, crunchy contrast. These are simple dishes, but they work well as an opening before the heavier courses arrive.

The stir fried kai lan with minced garlic is a straightforward vegetable dish, but the greens were cooked with enough bite and carried the savoury fragrance of garlic without becoming overly greasy. Simple, but good.

The main highlight is the half portion serving of a whole Premium Roast Irish Duck.

The duck is marinated for hours, air dried and roasted to achieve its signature crisp skin. The skin was nicely crisp, while the meat remained tender and juicy. For S$88++ for four, the roast duck offers good value, especially when shared as part of a full meal.

The Signature Claypot Rice was another suprising highlight.

Cooked in duck bone broth and finished with coriander, spring onions, crispy shallots and house made rice sauce, it was fragrant and savoury. We also liked that the rice was prepared tableside, with the staff expertly preparing the dish in front of us.

The Mapo Beancurd with Sliced Fish brought more spice and flavour to the meal, with soft beancurd paired with tender fish slices.

We also opted for the Hot and Sour Soup, which costs just S$1++ per person as an add on. At that price, it is an easy addition to the set.

For something more dramatic, we added the Awesome Flaming Pineapple Beef (S$36).

The pan-fried beef cubes are served inside a fresh pineapple and lit tableside. The presentation is certainly theatrical, but the dish also tastes as good as it looks. The beef was tender and savoury, with the pineapple adding a touch of sweetness.

Overall, the Ultimate Roast Duck Indulgence Set is a solid weekday dining option for groups.

At S$88++ for four, you get a substantial six course meal built around roast duck, along with claypot rice and other sharing dishes. The S$1++ per person soup top up makes the deal even better, while the Flaming Pineapple Beef is worth adding if you want a more entertaining centrepiece for the table.
