Hi Everyone!!
Last Sunday I was at Peking Restaurant in Eastwood. Not hard to guess what they sell, the Peking duck. Peking duck is popular with its crispy duck skin and succulent duck meat. It is normally eaten with the rice pancake, shallot, cucumber and the hoisin sauce. So on that night, we ordered peking duck, shredded beef, fried fish with sweet corn soup, beancurd and peking chicken.
The duck was served in two ways. The first one is the duck with the rice pancake, the second one was we can chose from san choy bow or the duck noodle. We chose the duck noodle because the san choy bow will only serve for 4. Then, the duck was cut in front of us. The skin and the meat was taken for the pancake and the rest will be made for the noodle. Surprisingly, out of a big duck, not much that we can eat. We only got about 12 set of duck pancake and the noodles with not-so-much meat.... However, it tasted really good. I think the skin should be crispier, but the taste was delicious.
The shredded beef was very crispy. The sauce and the carrots complement it very well. I think the beancurd was a bit average. The fried fish I think is a bit too salty that I could not really taste the sweetness of the soup. However, the Peking chicken was really good. The sauce suited the dish very well.
Overall, it was quite a good experience. However, I think the Peking Duck itself was too expensive ($43.6) for what we got. The other dishes were alright though. I will come back there for the shredded beef!
