Leaving Bejing without having experienced Peking duck is tantamount to bypassing Kuta beach in Bali. The centuries-old procedures begin at special farms on the outskirts of town, where white-feathered Beijing duck are raised on grain and soybeans to fat-ten them up. Once in kitchen, the ducks are hung to dry and later lacquered with molasses, filled with air, ung on hooks and slowly roasted over an open fire-which diners can watch through a glass wall. The entire duck is ceremoniously served in stages- first the dishes od shallots, plum sauce, and crepes.
