Saveur: Affordable French Cuisine

I think there has always been a lot of hype over Saveur for $10 duck confit. However, that's no longer the case because the prices have been raised to $14. Not sure if that is still considered cheap for duck confit. 

Ordered a small portion of their famed pasta for appetizer. It was pretty good although I guess I prefer my pasta soft.

Also decided to try their foie gras for $9.90. Not quite impressed with it though. It tasted pretty weird to me.

I think their duck confit was pretty well done. It wasn't too dry nor salty, which is a mistake made by many restaurants. I liked it but I wished it was more balanced for a main. Some vegetables would be great.
