When I was a kid I remember we would go on a trip to LA maybe twice a year to get Chinese food unavailable in San Diego. One of the things I loved was roast duck from Lucky Deli. They were hanging from a hook in the display case waiting for us. The red hued skin was crispy and full of 5 spice powder based flavor. Meat was tender and juicy, bursting with flavor.
I was excited to see Slurp had roast duck noodle soup. I ordered it with a side of pork and shrimp won tons.
I got 3 containers so I could put it together myself. There was a hot soup container,
a won ton container, and
a duck container which also had bean sprouts, broccoli, and noodles. Soup was hot and I’m not sure what was in it other than salt but it wasn’t just ok. Pork and shrimp won tons had a tasty flavor from the shrimp. The duck was tender and had a mild duck flavor. It was ok. Bean sprouts were fresh and crisp. Broccoli was fresh and ok. Egg noodles had a mild flavor which was ok.
The overall experience here was ok. I’d order the pork and shrimp won tons again if they had better soup to compliment them with. Cashier was nice and food came out fast. My favorite spot for duck won ton noodle soup is Sab E Lee. They have much more flavorful duck and soup which elevates the flavor of the other ingrediants in the soup.

The tempura shrimp sounded good.
