You’ll never see turkeys hanging in the window at Sam Woo, but that’s OK. Duck is where it’s at for this cash-only Chinese barbecue joint. Fatty, succulent, slightly sweet and rich, roasted duck needs nothing more than maybe a side of steamed rice and some kai-lan (Chinese broccoli). No holiday necessary for this bird, either. $20, 4215 Spring Mountain Blvd., Suite B101, 368-7628.
