The daily food & drink thread

[Blueberri]

I didn't see a thread for this already. So I thought I'd start one. Right now I have some spinach dip, tortilla chips and some diet coke.

I'm going to post about a meal I had three days ago because it was exceptionally good. I ate at a restaurant my family and I like a lot. It is a French bistro. For an appetizer, I had a small plate of duck leg confit, which is a flavorful and moist bone-in duck leg (drumstick and thigh) which has been roasted. It was served on a bed of some certain type of green lentils; lightly seasoned and with pearl onions.

I had a small salad of simply mixed greens and a vinaigrette made from scratch. For my entree, I had a tender steak with a wad of butter on it with some pomme frites (classic style French 'French fries' which are thin and crispy). Accompanying the meal I had bottled sparkling water and a nice red wine. For dessert I had some creme brulee and coffee.

It was one of the best meals I've had in the last year.

I should've renamed this thread.. How is duck confit?

The whole meal was very good, but the duck leg confit was my favorite plate of food during the meal. It was a real fine appetizer to have. And the steak with butter was really good, but it isn't a complete plate without the pomme frites, which for those that never had them, I emphasize, they are 'very thin' and crispy. I think they are great French fries.

I just did a google image search of pomme frites and of all the top results I saw, even the thinnest fries were bigger than the ones at this restaurant.

I only get to eat like that every once and a while, especially fine meals like that. What did I just eat 15 minutes ago? A cup of ramen noodles (the ones where you just add hot water).
