Of course, Peking duck is a classic menu item, and Zhao chooses to use 45-day-old Beijing ducks roasted in an oven with jujube wood. Honorable mentions must also go to the stewed chicken and pig's large intestines, pastries and traditional Chinese cheese with raspberry smoothies.
The background music at One Meal is unique－it combines elements of Peking Opera and modern hip-hop. All 47 songs are specially composed for the restaurant by Kunqu Opera performer Chen Jun and HitFM host and DJ Guo Peng.
The open kitchen is another slick addition that adds a sense of interaction between chefs and diners－walking past it is like wandering in a food fair, allowing you to choose your favorite snacks, whether it's tanghulu (sugar-coated hawthorn berries on a stick) or tangyoubing.
