“Pingtung cherry duck is marinated, air-dried, slow-roasted in a Cantonese hanging oven, and sliced tableside. Shadow beef with lotus root and cereal salted-yolk prawns add contrasting crunch for sharing.”

FIRST VISIT

First visit: how to order

01
Reserve roast duck in advance

Zhan Lu Roast Duck must be booked two days ahead; only eight are available per meal. Confirm duck, party size, and private room when reserving.

METROBITES LOCAL TIP
Taste skin first, then wrap

Taste one piece of skin first, then wrap duck with scallion, cucumber, and melon. Comparing plain and wrapped bites reveals more than saucing everything immediately.

✨ AI Quick Take

湛露中餐廳 Zhan Lu Chinese Restaurant brings InterContinental Kaohsiung's composed polish to roast duck and refined Chinese dishes. It suits family celebrations, business entertaining, or a dedicated duck meal.

Uncle's take: Roast duck skill is obvious in crisp skin and cleanly rendered fat; this bird carries the name.
Setting and atmosphere:On the hotel's second floor, dark wood, soft light, Chinese tableware, and private rooms create a formal pace for elders or business meals. Order to party size rather than banquet pride.
Location and dining notes:At 高雄市前鎮區新光路33號, 高雄洲際酒店2樓, phone 07-339-0303; accessible from 捷運三多商圈站 (Sanduo Shopping District Station) or 輕軌高雄展覽館站 (Kaohsiung Exhibition Center Station). Zhan Lu Roast Duck is limited to eight per meal and requires booking two days ahead.
● Zhan Lu Roast Duck

A chef slices the duck briskly tableside. Thin crisp skin yields clean aromatic fat without heaviness; lotus-leaf pancake, scallion, cucumber, melon, and sauce provide complete layers. Try it plain before combinations.

● Honey-Braised Mackerel with Golden Kimchi

A restrained honeyed glaze warms the mackerel without cloying. A smoky presentation catches the eye, while golden kimchi balances the fish's richness.
