Although I seldom eating duck, but the duck dishes in various cooking methods of Nanjing (南京) are indeed heaven and divine. 💖🦆 The only duck dish that I like is the Peking duck (北京填鴨).
Beijing Duck came from Nanjing. The third emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty, usurped the throne from his nephew, the emperor Jianwen, and moved the capital of Ming to Beijing from Nanjing during his reign. As the result, lots of officials with their families, cookers and so on went to Beijing, Nanjing duck has been spread out in Beijing since then and became domestic and been much different from the original ones.

Thank you Amy, I was born here and now stuck in Sydney and absolutely miss Nanjing. The places you’ve been to are where I grew up in and thank you for sharing how the city looks like now. My mouth is drooling looking at all the food ❤️
As a Nanjingese who is living in Australia, I have to say I am soooo jealous! I am very homesick.. Your video brings my memory back to the days that i was in Nanjing, the typical summer background sound from cicadidae， that was used to be my pet peeve sound in summer, but now it could be the best music...
We are so lucky that here in Sydney, we can get both traditional roast duck and salted poached duck. I love the flavour of the salted duck, but because of the cooking method, it's a bit fattier than roast duck. Either way, any duck meal is a good meal 😋
Love that plate of yummy roasted duck. Nice to see you didn’t duck away from the other parts of the duck. Your ‘twin’ Katherine was in Nanjing before moving to Chengdu. Hopefully some day your paths will cross! :D
As a homesick Nanjinger in England, I could not stop smiling watching this video. I love how open you were to trying everything and how much you all enjoyed yourselves. Thank you for such a wholesome video. One thing about “duck x tangbao”: I don’t know if anyone else has mentioned, but roast duck tangbao (天王烤鸭包) is actually one of the signature dishes at 大牌档 (Nanjing Impressions). Be sure to try it out next time you visit! You won’t regret it. :)
I love the happiness and positiveness throughout your video. I lived in Nanjing for 9 months and missed it so much, thank you for sharing the local life there
Thanks to you (and this video)= I ordered myself some Nanjing roast duck for dinner today as a treat since I am recovering from surgery, and it was absolutely delicious! rich, slightly sweet, a tiny bit of sourness. Just amazing. Thank you for making these videos and sharing the not so known chinese dishes in the western world! :D

You are supposed to just have a small bite on the soup dumpling first, and suck the juice out of it, then dip in vinegar and eat the rest. You can actually ride tandem bikes on these walls of Nanjing. Fall in Nanjing is particularly charming, the whole city is infused with the smell of osmanthus flowers.
You don’t eat duck stomach that way. We cut it into very thin slides and do a 凉拌菜。if you eat them in the while piece, it’s be a bit too intense and a bit gross. Even for chinese.

The reaction of the guy tasting roast duck for the first time was priceless. LMAO, and jealous.
i spent couple months in southern africa and their cuisine is nothing to write home about.
Omg, this episode is very torturing for me. Will spend months touring China after boarder open up.

Different parts of duck is basically for texture since they are usually braised in the same stock

Nanjing is the source of Beijing Roast Duck. This production method spread to Beijing with the moving capital in the Ming Dynasty.
