Peking duck is a popular dish in Chinatown Melbourne and is loved by many food enthusiasts. It is a traditional Chinese dish that originated in Beijing and has become a delicacy around the world. Peking duck has a rich history that dates back to the Ming Dynasty. The dish was initially reserved for the royal family and was prepared with a unique roasting method that involved hanging the duck in a closed oven. The result was a crispy skin and succulent meat that was sliced and served with pancakes, scallions, and hoisin sauce.
At Bamboo House, we ensure to prepare every dish with the utmost care and aim to deliver a unique experience like never before. Our exceptional chefs are well-versed with many years in the field and serve scrumptious dishes with mouth-watering tastes.
