The goose meat from Acheng is tender, juicy, and delicious without any odor. The oil rice is fragrant and chewy, perfectly complementing the duck meat. Other dishes are also tasty, allowing you to enjoy Taiwanese cuisine at a reasonable price.
The three-story store is spacious, with round tables that are comfortable for large groups. It gets crowded on weekends, but the system of being called by number is convenient.
It is popular among both locals and tourists, and although there may be a line on weekends, the system where you are called by number is easy to understand.
Famous duck restaurant 🦆
It’s a very popular place with locals and tourists alike!
I went on a weekend night, and there was quite a long line. After taking a number, the calling number was displayed on a monitor, which made it easy to understand! We waited around 15–20 minutes with a group of six 👀
【Atmosphere of the restaurant】
There was a line for a restaurant across from the one I looked up on Google Maps, and I realized the one I was researching was for takeout only or for delivering ingredients! Be careful not to mix them up ⚠️
The three-story restaurant is spacious, and if you have a large group, you can sit at round tables!
【Food evaluation】
Duck
You can choose the front or back parts of the legs, and this time we had the back! It was tender and very juicy! There was no gamey smell, and even for someone like me who isn't very used to eating duck, it was delicious!
Oil rice
Although it's not in the picture, the oil rice was delicious! It had a fragrant aroma and a nice elasticity, pairing perfectly with the duck👌
Other dishes were also tasty, and it was a great place to enjoy Taiwanese cuisine at a reasonable price!
2024 Must-try! I have been a regular at A-Cheng Goose since I discovered it, even before it was on the Bib Gourmand list, and I've been eating here ever since. I initially lived nearby and accidentally found A-Cheng Goose, and it became my favorite spot. Although I've moved away now, I still come back occasionally to enjoy the food and reminisce. Several company dinners have also been held here; it's a great place to have a good time with drinks.
The second location is a newly renovated store, much larger and brighter than the first one. However, since receiving the Michelin nod, it's become quite hard to get a table. Even on regular weekday evenings, you have to wait for a spot. Although the wait isn’t usually too long, it's still recommended to make a reservation if you plan to dine here. There’s a parking lot nearby, so driving here is very convenient.
High value for money, it's a restaurant that's suitable for all ages, and everyone loves it.
To add some of my favorite dishes that I didn’t order this time:
Duck blood – it’s one of the most flavorful and delicious duck blood dishes I've ever had, better than most spicy hot pot options!
Stinky tofu – this stinky tofu is seasoned similarly to the duck blood and pairs really well with drinks.
