THE CHEF
The creation of the traditional Peking duck dish is something that requires a careful knowledge of an age-old skill. Therefore the Chef must go through years of training. Prepared the same way since the Imperial era, this Chinese dish is an important cultural cornerstone. As such, the Peking Duck process for sourcing the meat, marinating, roasting and serving the duck is very important.
The crisp skin combined with the correct fat to meat ratio is something that can’t be replicated utilizing shortcuts of any kind. Far too many people have been fed an inferior product, and there’s a very telling difference between commercially prepared Peking duck and the authentically prepared dish.
THE RESTAURANT
