Just got back from a trip to Paris, and I already miss the food... Thanks! Thu Sep 26 18:38:09 -0700 2002 0 Jennifer 1 1051794 Gascgone on 18th and 8th does a great version. I am sure there are others Thu Sep 26 18:49:49 -0700 2002 1051793 0 Fred and Wilma 1 1051803 All the usual fancy food stores carry confit you can finish at home. All you need is a broiler and 10 minutes. Thu Sep 26 19:40:37 -0700 2002 1051793 0 Alan Emdin 1 1051811 This seems to be my night for recommending D'Artagnan. (Another poster above was looking for foie gras.) The restaurant serves all things duck related, including confit.

Fri Sep 27 11:14:25 -0700 2002 1051834 0 Alan Emdin 1 1051851 I go for the very satisfying duck confit (the restaurant i think is often overlooked) at La Lunchonette on 10th Avenue. Great classic, perfect for a cold and rainy day french food and ambiance. i have spent afternoons there very happily dreaming of France, and very nearly fooling myself into thinking that I'm nokwhere near New York.

Great for a nice lunch or light dinner. Sat Sep 28 08:17:59 -0700 2002 1051793 0 OMalley
