• Z&Y PEKING DUCK’S KITCHEN JOURNAL •
In San Francisco’s hyper-competitive corporate landscape, the venue you choose for your executive offsite, client dinner, or board meeting sends a distinct message before the first course is even served. A standard downtown steakhouse says you’re playing it safe. A loud, trendy neighborhood spot says you aren’t prioritizing the conversation.
If your objective is to project sophistication, cultural fluency, and uncompromising standards, you bring them to Z&Y Peking Duck on Jackson Street.
Led by Chef Lijun Han—whose culinary pedigree includes cooking for two Chinese presidents—every detail is considered. Here is why the city’s top firms are bypassing the usual Financial District banquet halls in favor of exclusive buyouts and private dining in the heart of Chinatown.
The Exclusivity of the In-House Experience
Many high-end restaurants treat private dining as an afterthought, awkwardly curtaining off a corner of the main dining room or referring large inquiries to sterile, offsite partner venues.
At Z&Y Peking Duck, we handle everything in-house. Our two-story restaurant features elegantly designed private rooms that capture the vibrant, historic energy of Chinatown while ensuring the absolute discretion required for sensitive corporate discussions. Whether you are hosting an intimate 15-person partner lunch or securing a full restaurant buyout for a 130-guest holiday gala, the environment is exclusively yours.
High-Impact, Customizable Menus
An unforgettable corporate event requires a menu that acts as a conversation starter, not just sustenance. Our culinary team works directly with event planners to curate bespoke dining journeys.
The centerpiece is our signature Peking Duck. Prepared over 48 meticulous hours—involving precise air-pumping to separate the skin, blanching, hanging, and roasting—the duck is carved tableside. This isn’t just dinner; it is a live-action performance of imperial culinary history.
For high-touch events, we elevate the experience further with our Caviar Beijing Roast Duck, pairing the mahogany, glass-like skin of the bird with 9-year Regiis Ova Caviar by Thomas Keller. Beyond the duck, we seamlessly accommodate complex dietary restrictions—offering vegetarian and mild-spice alternatives alongside signature dishes like Black Truffle Xiao Long Bao—without ever compromising the authenticity or caliber of the meal.
