RE: Summer Barbeque - doing it the Hong Kong way

If you've ever had roast duck in a Chinese restaurant before, that's what it looks like before it's served. We go through a lot of during family dinners😊

Sort:  

I don't think I have had roasted duck at a Chinese restaurant. Is it the same as a Peking Duck? I've never had that but always wanted to try it. They look so delicious hanging in the windows of some restaurants

With Peking duck, you just eat the skin, maybe with a sliver of meat. You'd place that on a thin pancake, with shreds of spring onion and cucumber, and some of the sauce and wrap it up like a cigar to eat.

Hong Kong style roast duck will be chopped up in small pieces before served. You might even see some places chopping them up in front of the window or by the counter.Sometimes they may debone it if westerners don't fancy nibbling at the bone, but we prefer to have it served in the bone.

Hope you get to try it some time

Okay gotcha. Interesting. Ya I definitely hope to try, well both of these styles of duck at some point. They both sound really good.
