    Hong Kong's style peking duck at restaurant level could be very pricey to have and usually for special occasion. However, there is a hidden gem at Carnavon street offering kopitiam price with equally delicious peking duck.

    Along Carnarvon street this coffeeshop, 星光Kopitiam, has the best HKM (breakfast only) and Roast Duck (lunch only). It serves one of the best roasted duck in Penang. Skin is crispy with succulent and juicy duck meat, full of flavours.

    Arriving after lunchtime, the restaurant was nearly empty; many might not even know they'd moved. I still ordered their signature combination—duck with rice.

    Roast duck was definitely the highlight.. tender, flavourful, crispy skin and paired beautifully with its signature dark sauce that’s slightly sweet, tangy, and aromatic.

    I have always been wanting to see if the roasted duck here is worth the visit but the parking difficulties have always made me stay away. Today I was lucky enough to immediately get a parking lot as I passed by and I decided to seize this…

    Since moving to the new location, my overall experience has been much better! The menu has expanded significantly, but the roast duck rice remains the most popular.

    Went here expecting an old-school stall with meats hanging in a non-air-conditioned dining space, just like in the YouTube videos I watched before our trip. So I was surprised to find that the place has been modernized.

    On July 22, 2025, I came to Penang Island for work. I ate at Google Man's Char Kway Teow and then came here to get duck rice to go. There was a very long queue, with both food and takeout options.

    Environment is nice. The chicken rmeat a dry but the taste is ok. The oil rice not available. The duck meat is soft & good. "Chai Boey" portion big & a lot of vege but the taste need improvement. Braised soy tofu doesn't suit my taste.

    The food was really bad. The roast duck skin was soft, the rice had a bad texture, and the sauce was unappetizing. The white chicken, in particular, was completely tasteless, mostly just chicken breast, and I felt like vomiting after…

    HK style restaurant. Ordered a Wanton Mee... Siew Mai... 2 Soft Boil Egg and Iced Coffee. The Wanton Mee was nice... the Siew Mai just taste like instant frozen food that was warm up in the steamer.

    This used to be one of the best roast duck in Penang and was worthy of Michelin. Now after they moved and making it bigger, their duck that was juicy and delicious has become dry like rubber.

    I am not sure the old uncle still manage this shop as the name is same. Overall, the food were decent. However, if compared with the old shop, the old shop's duck still taste better, juicer. The chai boey portion was big at rm6.
