at first I thought Aromatic was its name while still alive!
Now I find as part of 'national eating out week' in the UK:
22nd November 2012 will be the first Homage Day in praise of Crispy Aromatic Duck, a truly British invention and one of the most popular Chinese style
Crispy Aromatic Duck is a real British favourite. It was invented by the Chinese community in London's Chinatown in the latter half of the 20th century and is a signature dish in many Chinese restaurants in the West.
If you look at the food on the table of Chinese people in a Chinese restaurant, you will notice how different the dishes are compared those ordered by Brits who are not Chinese. Most dishes that appear on their table are usually avoided by the Chinese and are not found in China. Crispy Aromatic Duck is very much one of these and is the invention of Chinese restaurateurs in Britain. It is a British invention, mixing Peking duck with Sichuan style duck. Although it is tasty, many Chinese people consider it dry (the duck is deep-fried) and therefore a waste of a perfectly juicy duck.
