    MonaCo -> Mona is a female name, so maybe a perfume company? MoroCco -> (the second c is silent, like in the country name) Moro is short for tomorrow, so something something tech it is.

    But Peking duck is known as part of Chinese cuisine, right?

    Ah hell, I’ll take it. Peking duck slices on sushi rice, or a peking duck rice bowl with char siu sauce or whatever. Maybe char siu-stuffed nigiri. Think of the possibilities!!
