Reviews
- stocky_philodendronThis cheapfang roast duck place totally lives up to its rep as the original oven-roasted duck spot. The duck was super crispy on the outside, tender inside, and wrapping it up in those soft lotus leaf pancakes was legit the real deal. Besides the signature "flower fragrant crispy roast duck," the old Beijing mustard stacks (yellow mustard, not spicy at all) and the crispy fried meatballs were both worth trying. We got there a little after noon and it was already packed, both floors full, so I'd definitely suggest going off-peak. The staff were really warm and the whole vibe was pretty elegant, great for hanging out with a few friends. Super easy to find too, right by Yizhuang Bridge subway, and if you're driving there's parking on the street right next to the place and across from it. Overall the value was awesome — around 100 kuai per person and you leave totally satisfied.
