So I went out with some friends to Spices tonight. We had decided to get Peking duck, along with some other menu items. I have to say, I tasted more cucumber and hoisin sauce than duck. Others who had eaten this preparation in the past said that the skin could have been crispier. I would agree. All the descriptions of this dish that I've read indicate that the skin is supposed to crackle off the bird. When all is said and done, I would probably explore other menu items before going this route again.
I was hoping that they would bring the whole bird to the table and whack its head off a la A Christmas Story. No dice on that one. They carved it table side, but it was without head and feet.
