Sheng Yong Xing (Chaoyang)

It’s all about the signature roast duck here; yours will even come with a ‘birth certificate’ proving it is 45 days old. Grilled in a stone oven over jujube wood, it boasts crispy skin and delicious, juicy meat; order caviar to go with it if you fancy a splurge. Other dishes include sautéed springy prawns from Bohai Sea with shrimp roe, which are packed in serious umami. Also check out the very reasonably priced wine list. The restaurant boasts a bright, open feel.
