How's the Peking Duck at NC Peking Duck or Chang'An?

Regional Dining Discussions Los Angeles, SoCal, Vegas

Just wondering if anyone (@ipsedixit @A5KOBE) has tried the Peking Duck at NC Peking Duck (City of Industry) or Chang’An (Tustin)?

Do they come close to the crisp skin and delight of legit Peking Duck from Beijing, or are we getting flabby skin? :sweat_smile:

I don’t believe our health and safety codes will allow for truly crisp skin, unless they doctor it up with baking soda and/or a crime brûlée torche.

Thanks @ipsedixit. Yah I remember you talking about this a few years back. :slight_smile: I was just curious if either restaurant found a “magical solution” or something. Thanks.

Mott 32 in Las Vegas is probably the best tasting Peking duck I’ve had in the states. It may not be the cheapest, and it feels like they have swindled you out of the carcass, but dear lord is it tasty.
