Peking Duck ( CLICK HERE )
8 You can't leave Běijīng without sampling its most iconic dish. Once reserved for emper-
ors and mandarins, Peking duck began to feature on the menus of the lower orders at the
beginning of the 20th century. Now, there are a number of specialist kǎoyā (roast duck) res-
taurants and the dish is as much a part of Běijīng's fabric as the streets themselves. And
these are no ordinary birds. Reared on special farms, the ducks are cooked in a variety of
styles steeped in history. By the time it reaches your plate we guarantee your mouth will be
watering.
