TL; DR: Oil and sodium
Stumbled upon this place for dinner unfortunately. We were hungry and thought "how bad could it be for this hole in the wall?" Well, not all holes-in-the-wall are hidden gems, case in point, Sam May BBQ. I got the two-BBQ on rice; I picked BBQ duck and roast pig for $7.75+tax. The whole dish was just thrown together clumsily. The chef was more focused on talking to a patron and the lady beside him and was just hacking away at the food. He passed the dish off to the lady and she threw some napa cabbage on with a bit of sauce (which added only moisture to the rice as it was pretty bland). It came with a lean-meat soup and cold soy milk (the take-out cup being 3/4 full). The duck was pretty oily and not tender. It wasn't tough to chew, but it wasn't melt-in-your-mouth either. The flavours are fine, but the oil covered it up. The roast pork was hugely disappointing. The skin was not crisp even though we ate there and you only get a small sliver per piece of meat. The rice was cooked properly, but the sauce added minimal value to the dish. The soup was incredibly oily; I couldn't finish it and had to throw it out. I woke up the next day with pretty bad cotton-mouth so they must've used a lot of MSG in the food, I didn't consume anything else that night either.
Overall, it was a disappointing experience despite having 0 expectations and I definitely won't be back.
