The rest of the food is fine, nothing more. The rice pancakes are a matter of preference, the dark sweet sauce is delicious but needs just a tiny touch so it doesn’t overpower the duck, and the accompanying sides are standard. Jasmine tea is nice, again nothing remarkable. If you come here, come for the duck — full stop.
Where things shift is the atmosphere. The dining room feels empty and dated, with no real sense of mood or identity. And then there’s the service — an Italian waiter who is casual, loud, and completely out of sync with the dish he’s presenting. I wasn’t expecting ceremonial bows or theatrical Asian hospitality, but a royal recipe like Peking Duck deserves a hint of dignity.
Still, I want people to try it because the duck itself is genuinely worth it — just ignore everything happening around you and focus on the plate. Practical note: there’s a big parking area right in front of the restaurant, which is always appreciated.
The meal was tasty as I remembered it. Really something special for me.
The restaurant moved to a new place, close to the former one. Very bright and spacious now, with large windows.
I had the feeling that the main staff was the same as earlier. They are distant and on the quiet side.
– A table booking during peak time did not guarantee that the table was ready when we arrived. As we saw happen to many other patrons once we were seated, you enter the restaurant, and may be stood in the entrance for several minutes.
The waiters may acknowledge you briefly, or say that someone is coming, or some comment about how busy they are, but you will not have a seat or real idea of what is happening.
– Though just over half the restaurant was occupied, there were only two waiters who were clearly rushed off their feet and the impact on service was clear. Their unkempt white shirts set the tone as they looked rushed and had little service or care.
– Although the peking duck is the main dish the restaurant produces, it is expected that you will eat it around ONE HOUR AFTER YOU ARRIVE. This is part of the reason why the set menu has starters as explained by the waiter.
We had wanted to just have the duck and were basically told we would have to sit and wait for an hour…
– The restaurant attempts to make it more prestige with the visible carving of the duck but this simply makes the whole process longer with seemingly only one duck at a time ever being carved. How such a large restaurant can only produce one duck every 15 minutes is beyond me.
Overall, there was a lack of care and organisation, the waiters were poorly prepared and needed more support, and the duck was painfully slow considering it is the only main dish they produce.
Not worth the wait and lacklustre experience.
