BEST Peking Duck in New York! $140 Peking Duck With Caviar?!

I LOVE Peking Duck, it s one of my all time favorite foods. The crispy melt in your mouth skin, the amazing juiciness of the meat wrapped up in that chewy thin crepe with fresh veggies and sauce creates a delicious meaty crunchy combo that is unmatched. There has been a lot of new restaurants in New York City that has begun serving Peking Duck, so I decided to try them out. For this video I went to Elaine s Asian Bistro in Long Island, DaDong, which is a Michelin Starred restaurant from China, Decoy and some roast duck from Wah Fung my favorite Chinese BBQ place in New York. For some reason, the Decoy video footage was lost, I really have no idea how that happened but it was just gone. Personally, I did not enjoy eating there. First of all, if you want to have the duck it takes some effort. You either have to book a reservation which will subject you and everyone you re dining with to a mandatory $75 per person set meal and this could mean up to 5-6 people sharing one duck and for $75 per person that is outrageous. If you want to just eat their duck on its own, then you have to show up right as they open at 5 and ask if they have an extra one laying around. Seriously. If they don t then no duck for you. For the sake of getting this right, I went twice and the first time the duck was not bad, skin was mostly crispy and tasty, the duck meat was juicy and the sauces they give you are great. But the second time the skin was chewy and tough, not very consistent. So for all the hassle and price, I don t recommend this place. Da Dong, as I mentioned, the skin will be the best you ll ever have on a Peking duck. EXTREMELY amazing, but the duck meat is dry and tasteless. Elaine s is my go to Peking Duck place but located a bit outside of the city.
