Da Dong Roast Duck
Da Dong Kaoya (Roast Duck), nestled in the Nanxincang complex, a thoughtfully restored Ming dynasty imperial granary, is not one of Beijing's famous centuries old Peking Duck eateries, but it was made famous by serving one of the best ducks in town.
The skin of the duck is crispy and the meat is tasty, and each roast duck is served with an array of condiments, including sweet wheaten sauce, granulated sugar, crushed garlic, thin slivers of scallions, red turnips and cucumber. Your molasses-coloured duck is presented at your table, carved table-side, and then several duck-filled pancakes are assembled for you until your waitress thinks you've got the knack yourself.
Located in 1-2 Nanxincang Shangye Daxia, 22A Dongsishitiao, Dongcheng district.
