AE, MC, DC Meals per person without drinks range from $7 to $15.
This restaurant has served Beijing Duck since 1852 and was founded by the creator of the recipe. Nationalized after the 1949 Communist Revolution, it has opened several branches across Beijing, but the one called Lao Ya or Old Duck, South of Tiananmen Square is the most elaborate.
The feast generally consists of: cold duck tongue, sautéed webs, sliced livers, and gizzards to start; a main course of roast duck, to be dipped in plum sauce and wrapped with spring onion in a thin pancake; and duck soup to finish. However, one can order just the roast duck with pancakes which is a complete meal by itself.
And that's the right Quan Jude!
I'd recommend passing on the cold duck tongue -- the texture is rather strange to a western pallet. Instead, you might substitute stir-fried duck liver. Hmmmm -- delicious!
Note, too, that there are two grades of duck. The price difference is nominal, so go with the "high quality."
