Are they still open? The XO in the shopping center with Safeway and Target is gone.


Oh no! You are correct. It’s near my work, but I haven’t been in the office during the pandemic. Such a bummer.

Han Palace in McLean/Tysons is pretty good. $58. Like the PP said, air dry the skin and it gets crispy and yummy.

There’s a place on Route 7 in Tysons that is less expensive. China Wok I think?

We are an Asian American family and one order of Peking duck serves two adults and one kid. With six adults and several small children, I would order four.

We get ours from Bambu in the Palisades, but it is indeed very expensive. Tip: air fryers are fantastic for rendering out extra fat and giving you ultra crispy skin. I usually reheat on 330 for 5-7 minutes. Convection works too, of course, but not as well.

Darn, OP. I was hoping you were announcing that you had some and that I could come over and eat it with you ...

Good to know re Mack's, PP. Peking Gourmet is always our go-to.

We're in Bethesda and walk to pick up our Peking Duck order from Mayflower - it's a cut up duck with scallions, pancakes and sauce, we substitute fried rice for white rice. The kids love to roll up their own pancakes. Feeds 4-6 people for about $40, maybe? DH orders, so I'm not sure.

I really have a craving for Peking duck, was thinking about ordering it for the whole family (6 adults and some small kids) this weekend.
But it's so expensive?! $70 per duck, and we'd need 2. I just checked Peking Gourmet and Peter Chang, unless there are alternative places?
