We're hosting a seven-course Laque Duck Parlor next Saturday, November 19th, the first of our dinner series.

As it gets colder, we're moving from street food to sit-down dinners -- unique places that we’ll transform into our version of a Chinese banquet hall combined with a Vietnamese family-style meal, complete with red and gold decor, communal plates, and steaming soups served in red rimmed bowls.

INSPIRATION
The Laque Duck Parlor was inspired by dishes we’re obsessed with, like Laque Duck, a Peking duck marinated in lime and fish sauce. We’re doing duck two ways: one more Vietnamese (Duck Confit Imperial Rolls, inspired by a soup dish) and Laque Duck Buns that gives a nod to it's Chinese roots with its highly coveted browned, crispy skin, which we achieve by using state-of-the-art technology (aka air compressors). Learn more about our process here.
Our Shrimp Chips, a requisite with Peking duck, were handmade using a three-day process involving some serious summer sun, typically done in Southeast Asia but something we’ve never seen in the States. Wok-Fired Chinese Long Beans is one of our favorite dishes to eat out and fight over with our friends (so much it’s necessary to order at least two). And as customary after a banquet, we’ll be serving dragon eyes, a fresh fruit similar to lychees, but smaller and sweeter.
