The "clementine cake" with Meyer lemons (report)

Excellent, I have too many Meyer lemons, and not enough ideas on how to use them. Great recipe.

Peking duck at Great China in Berkeley

My mother used to make peking duck at home from scratch, and indeed the process is intricate. The problem is that if it isn't made to order, it should still taste as if it was made to order.

In this case, it tasted like re-heated meat in the fridge...

Peking duck at Great China in Berkeley

I tried the peking duck at Great China last night, but found it unimpressive. The meat felt like it was prepared ahead of time and heated up. The skin was pretty good.

You guys might also want to try "Peking Duck" in palo alto, ca.
