Mow Lee Shing Kee & Co. is a historical icon in the heart of San Francisco's Chinatown, known for its authentic Chinese preserved sausages and meats. The place has been there forever and is very well known for its lap cheung, Chinese bacon, preserved duck, and other cured meats. The meats are made in a home kitchen setting, not with industrial machines, and are praised for having the very best flavor, fragrant with soy, and being better than prepackaged or other sources. Customers describe the products as delicious, with great flavor that is the same as remembered from decades ago. The shop is considered a tourist attraction, noted for being historical and clean. Many buy items for themselves or to gift to family, supporting this business as a dying art. It is truly considered the best for cured Chinese meats in Northern California.
Don't miss this place, this is a 150 year old shop making Cantonese style preserved meats. I got some dried pork belly and lap cheong. And some dried chicken leg and some kind of flattened pork. The owner lady cut it it up for me too.

Authentic Chinese preserved sausage and meats! The very best flavor, same as we remembered from more than 60 years ago. The prepackaged stuff doesn't compare!
