I’ve also had some great ones in Guangzhou, Shanghai and Taipei, but the one I had in Melbourne probably topped them all. If it weren’t for this damn pandemic, I’d book a flight there just to have it for dinner.

I found it by pure chance. While in Guangzhou, an Australian businessman recommended this restaurant that was started by a HK chef who had emigrated to Melbourne, and Peking duck was his signature dish.

Note - I've never been to Beijing, and would love to try the Peking duck there. On my to-do list.
Road trip! I call shotgun!
