Peking Duck is a very traditional Chinese dish. Duck has been roasted in China for 1500 years and the Peking duck has become the must-eat food for visitors to Beijing. This dish is quite rarely seen outside of China, as it is costly and time-consuming to make. Nonetheless, the Peking Duck House brings this delicious dish to Tel Aviv, prepared to perfection.

Besides roasted duck, a wide selection of Chinese dishes and dim sums can also be found.
