A Peking Duck in Fung Shing
15 Lisle St, London, UK - England WC2 H7BE · 20-7437-1539
The history of the Peking Duck can be traced as far back as the Yuan Dynasty (1206 - 1368). By the time of the early 15th century it had become one of the favorite dishes of the imperial Ming family.
traditional way of serving Peking Duck is a three course meal: first course is served with the crispy skin and steamed mu-shi flour pancakes, slivered spring onions (U.S.:scallions), sliced cucumber strips, hoisin sauce, and plum sauce (other restaurants will use mantou, a type of Chinese fluffy steamed bun.) One places pieces of chopped duck skin on a pancake, adds a bit of hoisin sauce, plum sauce, and spring onion. The mixture is rolled up and eaten.
The remaining duck meat is usually chopped up, stir-fried, and eaten wrapped in fresh lettuce, while the bones are used for broth.

A meal at Wing Yips Chinese supermarket, we went to the restaurant there with some Chinese Friends of ours and they ordered lots of different dim sum so we tried lots of things we wouldn't usually. Not to keen on the chicken feet though!!

I personally like Kung Pao chicken and some spicy chicken fried rice. Good stuff. Try to avoid going to Panda Express and see if there is a sit down Chinese restaurant in your area. Especially if it is run by a Chinese family. MMMMM.
Be adventurous.

Depends how adventurous and open to trying new things you are.
Being Cantonese, I love anything with seafood with light sauces, rather than the thick ones you get in take aways and some restaurants catering to western palates.

Almost anything eaten in Hong Kong - it must be the authentic ingredients and atmosphere that makes food there so special.
I can recommend Mongolian dishes as well - accompanied by local wines.

Ribs in OK sauce and Special Fried rice. Because its just so bloody tasty and you get to pick up the ribs, get all messy and lick your fingers - so sensual! Plus you get a bit of everything in in the rice and it all fits perfectly with the sauce.

I prefer Orange Chicken from Panda Express (http://www.pandaexpress.com/default.asp). It tastes very good with fried rice and is a little spicy/tangy.

I can't believe nobody mentioned good ole crispy shredded chilli beef. Team it with Singapore noodles (the vermicelli/thread egg type, not the fat chow mein ones though)....and you have yourself a most tasty bit of chow!
