peking duck >> any other way to cook a duck. Also, roasted pork is really good when the skin becomes all crispy.

Roast duck is awesome. Now those fish with the heads, eyes, and scales I can do without.

Duck fat, a decadent staple of Southwestern French cuisine, turns out to be good for you! Well okay, not as good as olive oil, but much better than butter, and all things considered, not that bad, thanks to duck fat's high percentage of mono-unsaturated fats, the kind that help raise good cholesterol.http://www.evalu8.org/staticpa...age=review&siteid=5847Furthermore, what many are unaware of is the health benefits to duck fat. Duck fat contains 35.7% saturates, 50.5% monounsaturates (high in linoleic acid) and 13.7% polyunsaturated fats.(Which contains Omega-6 and Omega-3 essential oils). This compares to olive oil which is: 75% monounsaturated fat (mostly oleic acid) 13% saturated fat and 10% Omega-6 linoleic acid and 2% Omega-3 linoleic acid. The main difference between chicken, turkey and duck is that duck contains more linoleic acid, which chicken and turkey contain a higher amount of polyunsaturated fats. It appears that duck and goose fat is more like olive oil than it is like butter or beef. http://greenmarketrecipes.com/..._benefits_duck_fat.htm
