For the weary traveller, sick to the stomach of foreign cuisine, there's only one sight more comforting than the neon-yellow arches of McDonalds - and that's the sight of a good old-fashioned Chinese restaurant. In fact, whereas most Westerners have never been to China, few of us couldn't recount the average Chinese restaurant menu off by heart... But at Peking you won't just find the same old spring rolls and scallion pancakes. Delicious seafood is their specialty and exotic dishes like shark in coconut sauce, marlin with mango, monkfish in ginger-garlic sauce, and king prawns in peanut butter are the order of the day. Whether it's the house specialty Peking Duck, or more traditional favourites like pork in sweet and sour sauce that makes your mouth water, you'll find plenty to get your chopsticks round here.
