Now that I'm back stateside, I'm craving it again. I see plenty of ducks and chickens hanging in Chinatown windows, but not many geese. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks....

Not sure about flushing. You may want to try posting the same question in the OuterBrough Board. Fri Sep 21 08:27:34 -0700 2007 2962765 54254 kobetobiko 2 2962847 Interesting. Thanks kobetobiko. I'm surprised roast goose is so rare in NYC's Chinatown. Any idea why this is? There certainly seem to be myriad restaurants specializing in roasted meats. It really is an underappreciated meat in my opinion. Fri Sep 21 08:43:48 -0700 2007 2962775 118892 ericd74 3 2962861 Amazing 66 has bean curd skin with goose. Haven't tried it. Maybe most places use the intestines and throw the rest of the goose away. (joke) Fri Sep 21 08:46:39 -0700 2007 2962847 11362 Brian S 4 2963169 You are right Brian S. They have the bean curd skin with goose and also goose web with sea cucumber. My guess is that the geese are imported (may not even be the whole geese, but just parts) and that's why there wasn't any whole roast geese in town.

Fri Sep 21 09:29:41 -0700 2007 2962765 19911 SomeRandomIdiot 2 2963266 I believe those are roast duck. Fri Sep 21 10:30:15 -0700 2007 2962997 54254 kobetobiko 3 2963502 Looks like it's roast duck or bust then, at least if I want to stay on this side of the East River... Any recommendations? My recent go-to has been New Big Wong on Mott (I believe), but I'm always open to new recommendations...
