Due to problems at the PEK airport (long wait for entry-without-visa and lost luggage) we got into Beijing late. So we just went across the street from the JW Marriott to Da Dong (is that the "China Central Mall"?).

The family liked it: very tasty duck and a very pleasant dining experience. Out of curiosity, does their duck vary from location to location? And are the prices the same? The duck seemed a bit expensive to me (more than US$40 a duck, plus a couple bucks for each set-up), but the total price wasn't that much because we weren't that hungry (we were served a late lunch on the plane). Are there "better value" duck restaurants, where the quality is comparable, but the price is lower?
