We decided to try Da Dong Roast Duck (北京大董烤鸭店) despite Quanjude's good reviews on Tripadvisor. We were told by the locals that Quanjude is more famous around lao wai (foreigners) because of their ducks' fat level. On the other hand, the locals like Da Dong because the ducks' skin is crispy and contains less fat. I like crispy. And I don't like fat lol. It was an easy decision :)
This was definitely a splurge during our trip. It wasn't cheap but you must try Beijing duck while in Beijing!
Tips: In case you get lost, mention "kao ya" when asking for directions. Usually people around the restaurant know where it's located :)
Complimentary clementines + really good black sesame dessert (not pictured)
