Popular Houston Sichuan restaurant Duck N Bao opened a new location in May, adding an outpost in the city’s Rice Village neighborhood. Duck N Bao is known for dishes like crispy-skinned, Peking-style lacquered duck and soup dumplings. New additions to the menu include duck fried rice and Sichuan-style rice-battered beef shank. The 2,600-square-foot dining room seats 100 diners while the 1,000-square-foot patio seats an additional 22 diners. The space is decorated with tufted leather banquettes, wood paneling, and built-in display cases featuring a collection of Chinese teapots and serveware. Diners can peer through a viewing window into the kitchen to see Peking duck being carved and plated or dumplings being whipped up by hand.
