Try Canton Delights in Cupertino.  They are at 10125 Bandley Drive. They meet most of your requirments.  1. Crispy skin.  2. "Tortillas"
3. Just skin.  4. Scallions (no cucumber). 5. 2nd course of minced duck in lettuce cups (no soup).

I think Peony's in dowtown Oaland does a pretty good duck that is pretty close to what you are looking for.

We like the Peking Duck at the Grand Orient restaurant in the shopping center at Fremont and Mowry, near Barnes and Noble and Starbucks.  It meets all your requirements except that buns are served rather than mu shu style pancakes.  The duck is always available without advance notice, and the portion is large enough for two people for dinner. The menu at this restaurant is quite varied, and other dishes are also good.
