The famous Peking duck

Our last night in Beijing we went out for Peking duck which is still the traditional quintessential Beijing dinner out. We ordered one duck and some veggie sides. One of the carvers brings the duck to the table and carves up 5 sections for five styles of courses. First course duck skin with fat which is dipped in sugar. Second course duck breast carved and placed on the plate in the shape of a flower. This was eaten with traditional flat pancakes. Aurora quite enjoyed it all on its own and ate the duck pretty much as fast as we could load her plate up.En savoir plus
