In 1976, Danny's father started his roast duck business with a self-designed oven in front of his restaurant in Jalan Yau Tet Shin. His business propered and soon 2 more outlets opened in Jalan Lau Ek Ching and Jalan Yang Kalsom.　
Although aged 67, Danny's father, the patriarch of Sun Yeong Wai restaurants continues to improve his techniques for roasting ducks.　
Between 1980 and 1990, Danny's father traveled to Hong Kong annually to enhance his culinary skills in the preparation of roast ducks and seek ways to improve his business. By the 1990's business gradually passed from father to son.

Thanks for the treat, Aunty Yvonne and Uncle :-)
I have to say, possibly the BEST DUCK in Malaysia, lean but tasty, juicy but crispy. Great stuff! Only London's Royal China in Bayswater comes close ...
