Peking garden in Pacific Place has been our goto place when we wanted peking duck, and service has always been pleasant!

Previously, we have always ordered from the A La Carte, this time I think we made a mistake ordering set for 4.
The set included
-signature combinations of of peking specialties
-sautéed prawns and scallop with veges
-Braised mock shark’s fin soup
-BBQ Peking Duck
-Deep Fried Sliced fish with sweet and sour sauce
-Braised sea cucumber with spring onion
-Steamed port kand soup dumpling
-Sweet Almond cream with egg white
Because it was a set, The signature combination came in four pieces and to be fair, it looked a bit sad. The taste was also a bit bland, lucky to us, we didn’t want any seconds..

The prawns and scallop were one of the better dishes, the prawns tasted fresh and crunchy, and the scallops were also nicely done!

The mock fish fin we didn’t like at all, the texture wasn’t right, if they had a nice slow cooked chicken broth, it would be a much better texture than the thick paste soup (羮), which felt like a lot of starch!

The duck was delicious and worth waiting (we waited 40mins), the skin was thick and crunchy and full of fatty goodness! But the problem lies in the pancakes, it was so thin that it keeps breaking! And it wasn’t HOT!!! It’s all in the details… and this made us a bit mad and we couldn’t be bothered sending it back as we waited long enough….

The sweet and sour fish looked delicious too; but the batter was so thick with so little fish… disappointing… I much prefer the whole fish which we usually order in a la carte…

Dumplings and desserts were upto standard!

My conclusion is, I will still come back for the duck and a la carte but for $2180/4 plus tea and appetiser $ plus +1…. About $700/head was a bit pricy!
