In the world of Cantonese cuisine, roast goose reigns supreme. And in Ipoh, when seasoned food lovers speak of an unforgettable, soul-stirring roast goose, one name inevitably rises above the rest — Mr Goose (烧鹅仔).
At the helm is Master Sam (San Di), a craftsman who carries two generations of Zhanjiang (Guangdong) roast goose heritage. With 25 years devoted to a single red-hot roasting furnace, he has elevated roast goose into an art form.
Not afraid of comparison — only afraid of those who don’t truly know quality.

The Grand Finale: The 100-Day “Perfectly Matured” Golden Roast Goose
What makes Mr Goose’s roast goose so authentically original lies in an almost obsessive commitment to quality — from selection to final roast.
Ingredient First: 100-Day Fully Matured Goose
Master Sam insists on using geese raised for a full 100 days. Only a properly matured goose has:
• Firm, well-structured meat
• Ideal subcutaneous fat distribution
• The ability to produce that rich, assertive goose-oil aroma when roasted
This is the foundation of a roast goose that tastes deep, bold, and unforgettable.
The Soul: 15-Spice Secret Marinade
Each goose is deeply marinated with a secret blend of 15 premium spices.
This isn’t merely to remove gamey notes — it is to allow layers of aroma to penetrate all the way to the bone. Combined with top-grade ingredients and zero cost-cutting, the result is a pure, lingering, and profoundly Cantonese flavour.
The Craft: 25 Years at the Red Furnace
From Zhanjiang to Ipoh, Master Sam has stood by the red furnace for a quarter of a century. His control of fire and timing is meticulous down to the minute.
The result:
• Skin glazed like amber, thin and shatteringly crisp
• Meat tender, juicy, and deeply flavorful
• Goose oil bursting across the palate with the first bite
This is the unmistakable signature of decades of mastery.

Artisan’s Selection: A Complete Cantonese Roast Feast
Beyond the iconic roast goose, Mr Goose offers an impressive lineup of expertly crafted roast meats:
Cantonese Gold Award Hanging Roast Chicken (Tung Duk Chicken)
Made from free-range chickens aged 6–7 months, marinated for 30 minutes and air-dried for 3.5 hours.
This strict process ensures complete separation of skin and fat, producing:
• Extra-crispy skin
• Springy, juicy meat
• Natural sweetness unique to true free-range chicken
Hakka Hand-Shredded Chicken
No blunt knife cuts here. The chicken is hand-shredded along the muscle fibers, preserving elasticity and juices. Dip it in the house sauce and enjoy a mouthful of fragrance and texture.
Crispy Roast Pork (Siu Yuk)
The textbook definition of “crackling perfection.”
Careful skin preparation and precise heat create:
• Explosively crispy skin
• Moist, succulent meat beneath
• Rich but never greasy mouthfeel
Cantonese Char Siew in Honey Glaze
Only premium pork belly is used. Properly matured pork delivers a natural sweetness that shines through. Each slice glistens with caramelised honey glaze — tender, luscious, and melt-in-the-mouth.
Black Pepper Roast Ribs
A bold, savoury standout. Thick, meaty ribs infused with black pepper spice, lightly charred outside and juicy inside — perfect with rice or as a beer companion.

Value Proven: You Truly Get What You Pay For
Behind Master Sam’s gentle, refined manner lies an uncompromising stand on ingredient quality.
From individual servings (from RM16.80) to a whole Golden Roast Goose (RM368), every price reflects premium ingredients and labour-intensive craftsmanship.
