Re: Crispy Duck and Pancakes -no pancakes!!!
The pancakes for Peking duck is plain flour, not rice flour. Asian stores in Sunnybank sell them.
While we're on the subject, can I recommend a great place for Peking duck? I've been living in Brisbane for 6 1/2 years and only 2 weeks ago did I go to a Chinese restaurant in Cannon Hill for crispy duck for the very first time. I've had good crispy duck dozens of times in Hong Kong and in Beijing, and this one was definitely up there with the best. The chef slices the perfectly cooked skin in front of you, and removes the thin layer of fat completely. I wish my friend had told me about it before, as I had passed that place many a times.
