Located on the tenth floor of the Royal Garden Hotel, this high-end Chinese restaurant is famous for its legendary wood-fired Peking duck. The duck is prepared according to an ancient Beijing recipe that takes at least 24 hours, and is typically presented in two servings. If eating Chinese while overlooking the Kensington Gardens sounds like your cup of English tea, make a reservation at Min Jiang—and then make sure to order the duck at least a day in advance. —Carolina de Armas
