Reviews
- dainty_duckSunlight was pouring in through the windows on a chilly afternoon and the whole place smelled like roasting duck, which honestly got me excited before we even sat down. We ordered the jujube-wood roasted duck and watching the chef slice it up right at the table was kinda like a little show. The crispy skin dipped in sugar?? wow, it just cracked and melted in my mouth. Wrapped it all up in a thin pancake with the duck, hawthorn strips, and shredded cucumber and every bite had something different going on, super classic Beijing flavor. The restaurant itself has this old-school vibe with red brick walls, really nice for taking photos, and it felt quiet and kinda romantic, perfect for a date. The duck sauce was unique too, rich but not heavy at all. Honestly wasn't expecting to be this impressed, would totally come back.
