one of the things i like to order in chinese resto's are the duck, to get variety from chicken or pork. when i'm dining with my mom she usually would stop me from ordering duck because she says the meat is stenchy. i wish she were there when i ordered this cause it was done perfectly! fried salted duck, the texture was soft inside but crunchy outside. not any bit stinky. their cook surely knows how to fry duck.
ok having said that, the egg drop soup was a bit mmm... burnt i guess. it wasn't the best, but i would try their other dishes if i were in the Met again. oh and the only thing, they served the fried duck over fresh cut cold lettuce which if you chew them together the taste of the duck weakens a little bit (because lettuce is watery right, and the rice weakens it a little bit more). i wish they had served some gravy or sauce with it.
