After the totally lame Broiling Pit we had to get some good Chinese for stop 4 — so we returned west toward:
A total classic on Atlantic not far from Elite.
They immediately treated us like pharaohs and put us in a private room.
Cold appetizer of mysterious chicken wing bits.
Fillings for the peking duck.
Peking duck, awesome as always with both meat and skin!
Fancy pancake case with bunnies!
House fried rice with Chinese sausage.
Fried sweet and sour shrimp. Decadent and delicious.
Lobster.
Garlic crab. Delicious, but a bit hard to get into.
Mysterious fruity jellies. I was so full by this point (3 meals in) that my stomach hurts just remembering.
Duck House was great, even if we only had a few dishes. I’ll have to come back for a full mega meal. But anyway, the Chinese crawl was huge fun even if not every place was successful!
The full crawl consists of these visits: Yaha, Broiling Pit, Duck House
