How can we eat such a cute duck❔

Sorry, dear duck~
This rice dumpling specialty store located on the first floor of an old apartment
not only has a super cute duck logo on the sign
but also features duck rice dumplings as the main item🦆

Since its opening in 2021, it has only been a few short years,
and it already received the 2023 Michelin Bib Gourmand recommendation last year.
This year, it got listed again in 2024🏆.
I, who originally only loved the rice dumplings my mom made,
couldn't resist the urge to go and explore during my lunch break👀

Upon arrival, I was first attracted by the artistic vibe of the exterior.
The old apartment's small tiled walls, combined with greenery and warm wood elements,
make the little store both cozy and atmospheric🌳

At this moment, it’s a weekday at 12:30 🕧.
Regardless of whether it’s takeout or dine-in,
everyone must queue to order first before taking a seat or leaving with their food.
As a result, the line stretches from the store’s counter 🈵 to the entrance.
One can imagine that it must be crowded on weekends,
and it’s no wonder the shop has a large waiting area at the front🪑

After finishing, it was around 13:00 🕐.
Most office workers have already ended their lunch break (I took mine until 13:30✌🏻).
Most customers, whether for takeout or dine-in, have finished their meals and left.
If you're not in a hurry, I recommend visiting around this time on weekdays
to leisurely enjoy a wonderful lunch☀️

Originally, I was really tempted by the introduction online for the taro pork rib soup,
but unfortunately, it wasn’t on the menu this time, so I'll have to try it next time.
Please enjoy the other dishes as introduced in the pictures below✨
