So good I want to do it again

[Sounds like the subject of a SPAM message, doesn't it?]

When I was in England, I went to dinner with the_magician and Kathy and Leo Sands. The first dish we had brought to our table was some kind of shredded, skinless duck with side dishes of hoisin sauce, shredded green onions and cucumber strips, and steamed moo shu-style pancakes. It was delicious.

So...does anyone have any idea what this dish is called? Kathy said ladyat could smell it from a mile away and also adores it. I want to order it from somewhere, but I don't remember what it's called!!!

It might be a variation on crispy duck or tea-smoked duck. Unfortunately it may well have been a variation that only that restraunt does since most duck I've seen elsewhere includes the skin.

There's also a Nonya version of the same basic idea, but I can't remember what it's called. (Nonya being a sort of cross between Malaysian and Chinese.)

Almost every Chinese restaurant I've seen in the UK serves it (and without skin, I've never seen it served with skin, the meat shredded), and at least some in Germany do as well. So do many takeaway Chinese places. UK filkers have been known to eat enough that the restaurant runs out, it's a standard order here.

Other duck dishes are often served with skin here, though.
