Dawanju

甲37 Dong'anmen St, WangFuJing, Dongcheng Qu, Beijing Shi, China, 100006

It might look slightly unappetizing to have a whole duck brought out to your table, but trust me on this and say ‘yes’ to Peking Duck when in Beijing! We went to Da Wan Ju, a small, local restaurant near the Wangfujing night market. Peking duck carved at the table Beijing...I’m not sure what I liked the most - the duck breast, or the crispy skin! For pure decadence, try dipping the crispy skin in sugar - the ultimate treat!
