Funky guitar dude and Peking Duck

Last night my cousin (who just arrived on tuesday) wanted to welcome himself to Beijing with a Peking Duck dinner. Luckily I had brought my trusty food guide and lo-and-behold there was a famous duck joint just south of Wang Fu Jing 王府井 area - Liqun Roast Duck 利群烤鴨店.

Just outside on the corner of the restaurant was an old dude singing traditional songs and playing on a weird looking instrument. 

Closer inspection revealed that it was basically a lie-flat guitar (which he later told us he bought in Shanghai). It was kind of funky as the frets had keys on them which were labeled in their respective notes.

Anyway, after hanging out there for a while, we went into the restaurant. It is actually a very famous place as the walls were filled with pictures of movie stars, singers, politicians eating there. Finally we got our Liqun Peking Duck! Ended up paying 117RMB per person.
