Monday night dinner. Wow, I knew Peking duck is tasty, but who knew Peking Duck could be so fun. We ordered the duck dinner special that totally uses the entire duck. First, this teen-looking hispanic boy with a hipster haircut carved the bird with complete finesse. I will call him Dexter. Then "Chuck" our waiter brought out steamed white buns - the asian kind, duck sauce, pickled daikon radishes, scallions, & carrots. Duck sandwich. I wanted to cup my cheeks (face) with the steamed buns. So white & fluffy. Dexter then took the carcass away. Some other wait staff brought out duck fried rice. Fucking good. Not greasy like other fried rice. Then there was duck soup. We were in heaven. I prepped for a large meal by eating just waffles, Frango mints, coffee, water during the day. Z & K - foodie leaders who brought us here could eat us under the table but were stuffed too. The entire duck is dark meat goodness. The skin, so full of cholesterol, was light & crispy.
We also ordered salt & pepper squid to before the duck. And to make this sorta healthy, we ordered bok choy. These 2 dishes were the bomb too, but they were only part of the peripheral Peking Duck experience (PPDE).
