The 6 Best Restaurants For Peking Duck In LA

"Capital Seafood is a classic SGV dim sum chain with a massive location in Beverly Hills. If you only order one thing here, make sure it’s the Peking duck. This juicy platter of poultry gets rubbed with five-spice, which brings out the meat’s rich, fatty flavor. Its slow-roasted skin is so crispy and golden-brown, you’d think it spent an afternoon in a lifeguard chair. And each precisely carved slice shatters into pleasantly crispy pieces with every bite. You’ll also get a classic platter of pillowy bao buns, scallion matchsticks, and hoisin sauce to go along with it. " - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren
