Satisfying my Peking Duck cravings at the highly popular Zither Garden! Really recommend making a reservation beforehand as walk-ins are practically impossible at the TST branch! Pic 1️⃣: 烤北京填鴨 (一隻) / Roasted Peking Duck (Whole) - $388 hkd 🦆 — Heard so many good things about their peking duck and it definitely lived up to my expectations! The duck was roasted to a nice aromatic finish, leaving the meat still tender and moist. It also had the perfect amount of fattiness to it went really well with

— Heard so many good things about their peking duck and it definitely lived up to my expectations! The duck was roasted to a nice aromatic finish, leaving the meat still tender and moist. It also had the perfect amount of fattiness to it went really well with their pancakes. The dipping sauces were also quite nice, and they also offered a unique apricot sauce which had a nice sweetness to it that complemented the duck well.
Pic 2️⃣: 黃魚燒年糕 / Braised Yellow Croaker with Glutinous Rice Cake - $238 hkd 🐟
— Really enjoyed this dish! The fish was pan fried to a super crispy finish and soaked up all the goodness of the sauce. The entire dish is bursting with flavour courtesy of the sauce. However, some of the rice cakes were a bit overcooked and mushy.
Pic 3️⃣&4️⃣: 京醬爆肉絲 (配荷葉包4件) / Stir-fried Shredded Pork with Peking Style Sauce (Served with 4 Pieces of Lotus Cake) - $178 hkd
— This was abnormally sweet and it felt like I was consuming spoonfuls of sugar in each mouthful. The shreds of meat were also way too thin and fatty, so the entire dish just seemed poorly executed. The lotus cakes were good but unfortunately did not go well with the sauce.
Pic 5️⃣: 蒜子乾貝時蔬 / Seasonal Vegetable with Dried Scallop and Garlic - $88 hkd 🥬
— Good dish. Broth was very flavourful and veg was fresh.
Pic 6️⃣: 砂鍋雲吞雞 / Chicken and Wonton Soup in Casserole - $188 hkd 🥟
— A hearty dish, flavours were balanced and seasoning was on point. The chicken broth was pretty rich and it’s definitely something that you can keep drinking. Though the wontons could be improved because the filling really lacked seasoning.
Pic 7️⃣: 杞子桂花糕 / Osmanthus-flavoured Wolfberry fruit and Aloe Vera - $48 hkd
— Really don’t recommend ordering this, it looked very appetising and full of flavour but in fact tasted like absolutely nothing. The texture was also extremely firm, likely from an overload of gelatine.
Overall rating:
😋Taste: Personally thought the dishes were a hit or miss, the peking duck was the star of the show but none of the other dishes really wowed us
📍Ambiance: Restaurant is very crowded and noisy, staff are friendly but very busy
⭐️Would visit again?: Would return for their peking duck but their other dishes need some polishing.
