This. We generally default to Sam Woo…but it’s just that, a default option.

Which Woo?
Sam Woo in Irvine. Several steps below Duck House in Monterey Park IMO.
That looks incredible 
. I wonder where the favorite spots are in Chinatown?
Peking Duck =/= Cantonese Roast Duck
While I agree with you, 99% of the time it’s going to be listed as Peking duck on the menu.
Aww snap I didn’t know Woo prepared the accompaniments Peking style. Never bothered to get it or my family.
The best Woo is Alhambra/Valley location, which is probably one of the best for roasties in 626. I love that place.
The Sam Woo’s in Chinatown were good, but they left the hood over 20 or more years ago I think.
Sam Woo in Chinatown merely changed it’s name to Hong Kong BBQ. We can only guess the reason for the change in identity.
