Simon's Peiking Duck Chinese Restaurant

If you start browsing the menu here, charismatic duck king Simon Lay will ask you why you're wasting your time- the signature Peking duck is the only way to fly. Watch Lay carve it with a violinist's grace and bring it to your table to commence the banquet ritual. Your first course is tissue-thin pancakes with gleaming slices of duck, cucumber, spring onion and plum sauce, then noodles, then a clear duck bone soup, fragrant with ginger and star anise (order a side of greens to keep it fresh). Join the crowds enjoying this ritual in simple, lively surrounds.
