Overview of Old Kingdom

Old Kingdom in Fitzroy is famous for its glistening three-course duck meal. Eating the duck with pancake, cucumber and sauce is heaven for Peking duck lovers. You can also order classic Cantonese dishes. Old Kingdom has the Chinese lanterns, Lazy Susans and bustling waiters that we've all grown comfortable with in our trusted Chinese restaurant.

    Cheap Peking Duck. Not necessarily the best duck in the business in Melbourne but slightly above average I guess. A bit too much oil. Each duck ordered can be served as a 3 courses - the stir fry duck with veggies is average and the soup is disgusting (oily and smells of duck tail). Restaurant is old and even slightly mouldy. Not a good atmosphere and I'll rather buy take away. Only good thing is the main peking duck wrapped in pancake. Ordered other food such as some tofu and also vegetable dishes - it's below China-town standard slightly. Service is very rude by the staff - some people don't like him at all as he rushes you to eat and finish quickly. Although he does have a humorous side to him. I'm Asian by the way so I know my ducks.

    Don't order anything else but the peking duck or you'll be gravely disappointed!
