Duck King — Restaurant in Halifax

I would say this is the best Chinese restaurant in Halifax. This used to be one of my go-to spots. But the portions seem smaller this time, and the flavors aren’t as bold as they used to be.

The wasabi duck feet were still the highlight—boneless, with just the right hint of wasabi for a flavorful kick. Highly recommended!

The beef with pork intestines has always been a must-order, but this time, the intestines had a bit of an off taste, and the stir-fry lacked that perfect crispiness. The spice level was also noticeably lower than before.

Tried the new roasted fish this time—it had a strong cumin and spice blend, and the tofu inside was bland. Tasted like they just threw those in after the fish was cooked.

I don’t even like cauliflower, but this dish was delicious. I suggest getting some sriracha on the side. It was some of the best sriracha I have ever had. It was sweet, spicy with heavy notes of ginger without being overpowering. Very good. The skin on the duck could have been crispier, and it wasn’t very flavourful, but in the little wrap with the cucumber and leeks was awesome. Great authentic Chinese food...

Super delicious peeking duck. Please make sure you opt for the fried duck bones as the 2nd course. So very good. The cucumber salad we ordered as an extra dish was delicious. Crisp and flavorful.

The only thing I would change is have more discription of each dish and all that is listed in the menu in English instead of some in Chinese only. We never know what we could be missing out on and I want to try everything. 😀 Thanks for an amazing anniversary dinner. We...
