Can anyone suggest where I might find Chinese duck pancakes in Chiang Mai?

Chinese restaurant across the street from the Chiang Mai Plaza Hotel

Ah man...

I have seen mean, nagrit, sucaprort things over the years...

But how could it be..

I would rather eat a fried human baby with crispy garlic, green onions, maky sauce and a sprinkle of prik and nam pla before I would harm a nice innocent little quaker...

Chinese "stuffed" pancakes, I had forgotten about those, I will check that place out, duck is the best. So hungry now, I have concluded (with the help of TV), that CM is to foodies what Pataya is to.....

" Chinese duck pancakes " a.k.a. 'Peking Duck'? That's often served with pancakes/thin roti like things?

Threedot, you're looking for this dish

Yes?

If you scroll down, to beneath the replies to your question, you will see a list of "related topics", one of which is called "Chinese Aromatic Crispy Duck". Click on it. There are some suggestions there.

As Chinese New Year nears, it's possible some of the more upscale Thai restaurants will offer some Chinese specialities.

Peking duck is not Chinese Pancakes, they actually look more like pancakes but cooked with a savory filling.

Can you give us the Chinese name for what you want ? (Or even the Thai name?)

Or find a picture to link to on Google images ?

Is it more of a street stall/small restaurant food, like those at sunflower-recipes.blogspot.com/2008/09/savoury-stuffed-pancakes.html ?

Sorry I wasn't more specific - I'm after the pic below...

I have no idea what the Chinese (or Thai) name is! But the duck is shredded and served with hoi sin, pancakes, cucumber and spring onion. Aroy!

Your picture shows what appears to be a simplified, store-bought version of "Beijing/Peking Duck".

Read more on Wiki at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peking_Roast_Duck or elsewhere. The "real deal" is considered something of a delicacy and requires lengthy and expert preparation. It may be the only dish offered by a large restaurant.

P.S. The pancakes are not cooked with the duck inside. You assemble your own parcels at the table by adding the duck and other ingredients to the "pancakes".

Think what he’s looking for is the Peking Duck, with the thin “pancakes” as he describes with the hoi sin sauce and spring onions; all wrapped up with some chili and whow, great dish! Think best are the Chinese restaurant at the Royal Princess hotel as well as the Restaurant at the Duangtawan Central hotel, top floor. The skin goes into the wrapper and the rest of the duck they cook to your liking; like with oyster sauce, etc.
