Bebek Bengil 3, Elite Concepts’ Balinese restaurant, will now be known primarily under its English name, Dirty Duck Diner. Food lovers who have had a bit of trouble pronouncing the name will find the new title as easy on the tongue as are the restaurant’s famous dishes.
The name comes from an incident during the construction of the restaurant’s first namesake in Ubud, Bali. One day a flock of ducks traipsed into the restaurant from a local paddy field, leaving muddy footprints everywhere. The restaurant became Bebek Bengil, which is Bahasa Indonesia for “Dirty Duck.” The Hong Kong restaurant is the third restaurant to bear the name, hence Bebek Bengil 3.
Diners are reassured that while the name has been translated, the dishes are still the same authentic Balinese cuisine as they have always been. After all, a Bebek Bengil by any other name will taste as sweet.
The Dirty Duck Dinner is located in the Broadway, 5/F, 54-62 Lockhart Road, Wanchai
