Peking DUCK is quite a rare delicacy that is only served at celebratory dinners and I was stoked to try Amara’s rendition (吉星高照 传统北京烤鸭), which is also available on Silk Road’s a la carte menu at $68++. 🤩🤩🤩

Seriously, who can resist this treat! 💕 Featuring a hearty slice of succulent duck meat encased in a thin rice flour crepe with crunchy leek & cucumber, slathered with some savoury-sweet hoisin sauce, this was indeed tantalising! 👍🏻

The star has got to be the duck meat with that perfectly crisp skin and fats beneath that melts in your mouth instantaneously. 😋😋😋 That being said, the meat remained moist & tender, evidence of great execution when roasting! Just look at that perfect golden-brown skin glistening under the light 😍 – are you salivating yet? Cuz I am! 🤤
