What Da Duck is a relatively new place at The L Place building in Central. They specialise in reasonably priced aromatic crispy duck sets for those who want to enjoy something quick and less formal than eating proper Peking Duck in local restaurants. Opening hours are 12pm to 9pm daily (closed on Mondays).

Another great reason to go early is most restaurants offer big discount on whole bill if you finished eating...
