| - I am super stuffed! Generous portions of delicious food; thank you to QJD Peking Duck for this lovely feast. In an intimate sit-down setting, I easily made new friends with the Yelpers around me. Being their specialty, the Peking Duck is a must, of course. Surprisingly, I also really liked the Tornado Salad. It's crunchy, juicy and a little bit vinegary, so it really got my appetite going. The biggest wow-er was definitely the fish - it looked like a blooming onion with a fish head! While I can't say I'm a huge fan, the dessert is a cultural delicacy that is true to its roots, so I was still really excited to try it. After listening to a bit of history behind the food, the founding of the restaurant, and knowing that they had brought over their head chef and 3 sous chefs straight from Beijing, I must say I've developed better appreciation for the traditional standards that they make great efforts to uphold. Their gorgeous menu looks and feels like a huge story book, and the prices are what you would expect to pay for higher-end Chinese cuisine; so nothing out-of-the-world here.
