Daily News | Order the whole duck at Forsythia for a modern French splurge
The 10-day dry-aged duck for two at Forsythia, with truffled cherry sauce, fried duck wings, fig aigre-doux and duck fat salad.
”They’re literally flying out the door,” our server said before catching himself in the unintended pun, taking our duck request just as two other tables were also being served their royal birds. The enthusiasm may come as a small surprise considering the $120 price tag for this three-part feast for two. But duck is always a special occasion meal for us. And this particular rendition is a true destination duck.
The whole 5-pound bird is hung to dry-age, tenderize and intensify in flavor for 10 days. The full breast is roasted to crisp perfection on the rib cage, then carved down into two crispy moons alongside pickled cherries, two confit duck legs, and crunchy fried wings paired with truffled cherry gastrique with fig aigre-doux. You’re going to want the fresh bittersweet crunch of that gorgeous salad dressed in duck fat-Champagne vinegar dressing to cut through all the richness.
These beauty birds are limited — just 12 to 18 a week — and many diners request them in advance on their Resy reservations . But you can’t lose here. Every dish is gorgeous in Kearse’s talented hands. The service is thoughtful. The pretty cocktails are always creative _ like the Cyan-Siam with tequila, Cynar and a hot pinch of curry. And Kearse also knows I’ll never miss a chance to taste his latest play with my all-time favorite cheese: Époisses.
