I cook duck when the other half is out also.... Score the skin and fat in a diamond pattern and render out the fat over medium heat till the skin is nice and crispy then into the oven...as said above I have settled on a sweet cherry pan sauce myself...while the duck is resting pour off the fat from the pan and put back on the heat I add a good splash of sherry vinegar and let it reduce off then some duck or beef stock and a big spoonfull of good cherry preserves, (I am using Maman) just heat until bubbly and thickened and pour over sliced duck breast or steak or foie gras or just in a bowl tracey

So we were at Red Lobster one night,...(I promise only once) with our Christmas gift certificate. Our waitress dropped one of our apps on the floor and the plate shattered, she told us not to worry she was going to raise hell in the kitchen . Well someone cleaned up the floor and we ate our one app and our biscuits and drank our drinks and watched the bus people pile all the dirty dishes on the table next ours and then eventually our mains came out of the kitchen with another waitress. Our waitress had quit. After we were charged for the dropped app the manager said the order was put back into the kitchen....yeah And? we never got it...he eventually took it off the bill. Fun Stuff, the service was better than the food though Tracey
