kunming eats, china

is that a little macabre? last post from the trip!

and to finish with possibly the best duck I’ve had in a while – and almost definitely the best thing I’ve eaten in yunnan – then well, it’s a good wrap-up.

imperial treasure super peking duck, town

amazing peking duck and chinese food in the paragon shopping centre. my parents have been raving about this place since I came back – and for a family of foodies that is high praise indeed. I’m not one for peking duck, since I usually only like the meat, and duck is often too fatty to hold any appeal for me. I have to say though, that when I finally had a meal here, I was fully and thoroughly convinced and impressed at the level of cooking here.

when you call up the restaurant to make reservations – which you should, because it is a relatively small place with few tables than the typical chinese establishment – they ask you if you would like to order a peking duck. I’ve heard that they serve a few hundred ducks a day here, and I suggest you say yes and get ready for a smackingly good meal.
