Peking duck, soup dumplings, cocktails, and Asian cuisine
"Head to the nearby Rice Village neighborhood for Chinese comfort food, with a particular focus on its signature Beijing duck. This succulent dish is served with pancakes, hoisin sauce, cucumbers, and scallions for an authentic experience. Beyond its namesake, the restaurant also offers standouts like tea leaf pork ribs, whole steamed fish, and flavorful soup dumplings, making it a go-to spot for those craving Asian cuisine." - Marcy de Luna
"From Wednesday, January 29, to Sunday, February 2, Duck N Bao is offering a special dual lobster tail platter for $30 with the purchase of an entrée. Served family-style, the dish includes two lobster tails, either salt-and-pepper style or stir-fried. This limited-time deal is one platter per table." - Marcy de Luna
"Duck N Bao’s third location maintains its reputation as a destination for crispy-skinned, Beijing-style duck and dim sum, including its very popular soup dumplings. The newer menu additions, like duck-fried rice, stir-fried salt and pepper lobster tails, and the classic mapo tofu, now with the option to add lobster, also entice. Beverages have gotten an upgrade with new teas imported from China and a showcase of Chinese spirit baijiu in drinks like the Dragon’s Breath. The cocktail, which celebrates the Year of the Dragon, combines baijiu, bourbon, Cointreau, and orange peel, with a finishing plume of oak smoke." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Rice Village is the home of the newest Duck N Bao restaurant which is, unsurprisingly, known for peking duck and xiao long bao. Right now, only this location is serving a lobster trio with salt and pepper, XO sauce and truffle, as well as caviar service and new dishes like duck fried rice and black truffle soup dumplings." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
"Rice Village’s Eau Tour will be open on New Year’s Eve for a special three-course dinner. Head to the French restaurant for dinner options like oyster stew with caviar, poached flounder with butter beans, and trout en croute. And you can opt to stay in the holiday spirit with a mini yule log for dessert. Price: $85 per person" - gianni greene
