I've lived in Boston for, oh I dunno, maybe 18 years or so, and in that time I do not think that I've found a Peking Duck place. When I was in DC there were a couple of places that specialized in the dish. Then, when I was in Taiwan, I fell in love with the dish!

But now I need to recreate in Boston. So, I'm looking for good suggestions. Presumably places in Chinatown, but others appreciated as well. :)

Thanks!

Try asking on the ne.food (http://groups.google.com/group/ne.food?hl=en) newsgroup. They have DOs for dim sum every once in a while!

Cool, I'll do a search first and then ask. :)

Thanks for the heads up.

I moved to Boston in 1978 and have eaten many places. I can't think of a good place for Peking Duck (now Beijing duck in politically correct circles). We did have some at a Bar Mitzvah. I believe you can get it at either the Chinese restaurant it Acton called Ginger or Chang An in Concord, but I would call to check. Nothing spectacular to recommend either restaurant. I'd choose the former over the latter, but don't go to either unless I am overwhelmed by kids' need for Chinese food. Relatively speaking, Boston does better on Indian and even Thai than Chinese.
