I’m from London and am a regular at Four Seasons Bayswater, also a regular at most of the Chinese restaurants in Bayswater. Lets start with the one thing that’s given me a bad taste. The service was rude, slack and SLOW…. they only had 3 covers at 8pm, my table being one of them. they weren’t exactly busy.

The duck was chewy on some parts of the meat. I was expecting ‘melt in your mouth’ roast duck like the London branch. I never thought i’d say this but the ducks used here lacks the fat to give it the flavor it deserves. It’s OK-but just that. The gravy used is not what I’m used to, way too thick and not sweet, more soy if anything-i didn’t touch the honey/orange sauce.

Out of 10 i’d give it a 5.5, to have the same name and experience as ‘The Four Seasons London’, the chef needs to be reviewed. Over all and to blow my own trumpet, I’ve had roast duck in the USA, London and now Malaysia. London without a doubt has the best. (PS China IS on my list).

Overall experience and because of the price out of 10. I’d give it a 5. It’s just OK nothing more!

Cheesey: LOL I’d actually forgotten about that, but it might just make the cut!

@mimid3vils: Expensive, but not much more so than most other roast duck restaurants.

Dang. I love roast duck. So does Dad. I’ll bring him there when I’m next back.
