Duck House, in a far corner of San Gabriel, a big, airy restaurant devoted to the bird, whose aroma drifts out onto the street. Its garish red-and-yellow sign is visible a mile down the road; the walls inside are dominated by huge photographs of the Great Wall plunging into the sea.

This house is devoted to duck (eaters) with their “famous” Peking duck offered in the traditional roasted fashion, stir fried with bean sprouts or in a duck bone soup, or all of the above, each served with a dozen pancakes. You have to order it an hour in advance, so rezzies are recommended.
