Duck stuffed with fragrant mac mat leaves and roasted to a glossy gold, with crackling skin and deeply savory meat served with a rich, silky sauce.
The leaves and berries of the mac mat tree are the soul of Lang Son cuisine, carrying a uniquely cool, citrusy fragrance. The Tay and Nung people stuff mac mat leaves into the duck's belly, coat it in honey and roast it over coals until the skin turns amber. It is an indispensable dish at feasts and border markets across Lang Son.
Flavour: Savory, crisp-skinned, fragrant with mac mat
