Many of us enjoy driving, the freedom of open roads and joy of discovering new places at our own time. Singaporeans especially don't have much such opportunities at home.

Dong Yuan Guangzhou Flavours Famous Roast Goose Yuexiu District 东园广州味 ☎ +86 20 3166 7173
Goose is of course high on our Guangzhou agenda (as usual). We had a few this time, I will write them up one by one - but I am putting up 东园 first - some friends said they are waiting for my write ups for their own upcoming trips soon 🤣🤭
I couldn't find an English name for 东园广州味, so I shall name it Dong Yuan Guangzhou Flavours for this article. 东园广州味 is a chain with a few outlets in Guangzhou. They have been well received by the notoriously famously fastidious discerning palates of Guangzhou locals as the daily full house and long queues attest.
