Traditional Beijing Roast Duck and Handmade Dumplings in Brandon, FL
How does one recreate the soul of traditional Beijing roast duck in Tampa?
It begins with precision—air inflation, blanching, and sugar glazing.
Each duck is cold-air dried for 24 hours, allowing the skin to tighten and the flavor to concentrate.
Then it is slow-roasted over fruitwood in a traditional hanging oven,
where gentle, even heat works its quiet magic.
The skin turns amber and glossy,
its rendered fat transforming into a delicate, glass-like crispness,
while the meat stays succulent yet never heavy.
Carving is an art of its own—slice by slice, impossibly thin and intact.
Served with hand-rolled lotus-leaf pancakes, sweet bean sauce, julienned scallions, and cucumber,
each bite is a living tradition that has traveled across continents to arrive whole.
If Peking duck is a feast, then soup dumplings and handmade dumplings are the language of home.
Handmade Dumplings
From heritage pork, chicken, and seasonal vegetables
to freshly peeled shrimp, each filling is whipped with house-made stock.
The wrappers are paper-thin yet resilient,
sealing in an abundance of natural sweetness and umami.
