BBQ At Work - Hurstville

I could walk past a Chinese BBQ shop after a three hour buffet and still be seduced by glazed roast duck, char sui, soy chicken and perhaps the most underrated yet perfect crispy skin pork out there.  BBQ at work is no doubt a weird name just like creative Hongkies calling themselves Arsenic, Kenson or Johnson but I digress. BAW is a small shop with only two tables mainly used for prep and staff meals but open for the public who want to have a rice dish along with their BBQ meat. There is no menu besides the one of the wall. The shop is old, tired, decor dated, cutlery needs the old Chinese tea flush through and the floor is so slippery from the oil it felt like an ice rink. But that's exactly why I love these places. The Roast Duck is spot on in flavour and skin thin and crisp but would have preferred it slightly warmer. Same goes for the soy chicken, perfectly cooked and moist with the master stock infusion prevalent in the flesh. The crispy skin pork bared perfect crackling and meat well seasoned from the correct marination. The sizes of the rice dishes were generous with some blanched bok choy as the side and a drizzle of Chinese salsa of spring onions and ginger for the chicken. The dishes are cheap and there is really nothing you could ask for more if you can overlook the scruffiness of the shop and just put your head down and eat.
