We haven't been eating out much but will check around for other recommendation for duck. The take out place on Noriega (across from Safeway) had a change in cooks and the taste has changed, not for the good.

Cantonese restaurants like to offer hoisin for the bean spread. I understand that the Northerners use a sweet bean less garlic/seasoning.
Ouch, seems steep but what in SF isn't? Maybe a Bay area kaoya DO sometime?
