My partner is ethnic Chinese and I haven't seen Peking duck locally. If you do find it then expect it to be expensive. I can tell you that 888 international market at 119 th street and highway 69 regularly has it but I haven't had theirs and don't know if it is fresh daily. They did have it on Sunday but if you want it you should call them to order it.
If you do get it be prepared to get the fixings like mushu pancakes, slivered spring onions and cucumber and sweet bean sauce. But as someone else has said be warned the dish is mainly valued for the skin and that is limited. Traditionally, it is served in courses with skin first followed by meat and finally a soup from the bones and meat scrap.

Good luck!

I think I’m going to skip it. We’ll be going to New York City next year, I think and we can have it then.
