Good Voyage bistro
Chef Max Walsh serves every part of a duck at Good Voyage in South Park.
“At Good Voyage in South Park, chef Max Walsh serves every bit of a duck except the quack.”
Duck-focused menu
Walsh's disco frites use offal and meat scraped from bony wings with sherry gravy.
“Walsh’s bestselling dish, the disco frites, consists of offal and meat scraped from bony wings, then coated in a sherry gravy made from carcasses and duck fat.”
Duck dishes
Duck drumstick and thigh are cured and slow-cooked in duck fat for a silky texture.
“The entree of a duck drumstick and thigh, cured and slow-cooked in duck fat until the silky meat easily falls from the bone, landed nicely with the licorice lick of fennel.”
Duck breast
Duck breast is dry-aged for crispier skin and a three-stage taste experience.
“The breast is dry-aged to yield a crispier skin when it kisses the frying pan. The result is a bite that greets the palate in three stages: at first, that crispy skin reminds one of a pork crackling.”
Duck liver mousse
Duck liver mousse tastes richer than chicken liver mousse.
“His excellent allium-tinged duck liver mousse tastes richer than the standard chicken liver mousse you’ll find around town.”
Duck fat
Duck fat is used for slow-cooking duck dishes and making sherry gravy.
“Inspired by modest, waste-nothing French cooking, the kitchen at Good Voyage subscribes to whole animal butchery.”
Duck breast pricing
Duck breast costs $38 to $53 per 7 to 10 ounce portion.
“The cafe sets aside five to eight breasts nightly, each around 7 to 10 ounces, and priced between $38 and $53, respectively.”
Duck frites
Disco frites are thrice-cooked fries with gravy for a crispy, crunchy texture.
“No one leaves this restaurant, or rather, nobody should leave here, without an order of frites, which are among the best in Seattle. Thrice-cooked until tawny and crunchy, these russet fries come with your choice of ketchup, hot sauce or aioli.”
