Hi Folks, Anyone here have recommendations for restaurants in Hong Kong and/or Beijing? I'm doing my homework by looking at the numerous travel forum sites for tips, but I'd much rather get the advice that only Rockwellians can supply. We will be in Hong Kong Dec. 26th-Jan. 1, then Jan. 1-6 in Beijing. (Brrrr....) Many thanks! Sparkycom (aka Snarky Bomb)

Ideally, I'd like this thread to be the mothership for a historical conversation about China, and I figured President Xi's 2015 U.S.A. visit was as good a place as any to start with. --- Xi Jinping (1953-), President of China, Visits the U.S.A. (Sep 22 - Sep 28, 2015) (DonRocks) -
My parents took me to Quan Ju De when I visited them in Beijing earlier this month. The duck, as described above, was top-notch. Aside from the signature roast duck, we were also served duck feet (as a cold appetizer), duck kidneys (sauteed with vegetables), duck neck, and duck liver. A lovely meal all around. Couldn't bring myself to eat the sea horses and grasshoppers on a stick that were sold by the Wangfujing street food vendors, though. I'm fairly adventurous when it comes to food, but have to draw the line somewhere! We also had some great meals in Xian (including a dinner with 18 types of dumplings), Yangzhou, and Shanghai, but unfortunately I forgot the names of the restaurants. -- [This thread has been split off from the Hong Kong thread, where sparkycom has some Beijing reviews in this post.]
