Chicago｜The Ultimate Poultry Feast at Obelix 🦆🍽️

French cuisine is all about duck & foie gras—and we're here for that decadent cholesterol rush! 😋 Obelix puts an Asian-fusion twist on poultry dishes, but not every item hits the mark. Here's our honest review! 🍮 Duck Liver Mousse 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Silky-smooth liver pâté that spreads like velvet 🧈. Paired with mustard and pickles, the tangy brightness cuts through the rich, buttery flavor—pure indulgence! 🤤 🥗 Salade Lyonnaise "Canard" (Duck Lyonnaise Salad) 🌟🌟🌟✨ Crispy, pan-seared duck confit on a bed of frisée lettuce, soaked in rendered duck fat—heavenly at first bite! 🦆🔥 BUT... The bottom layer is swimming in oil—could use better draining! 🙈 🍜 Foie-men (Foie Gras Ramen) 🌟 Who approved this?? A 1cm-thick layer of oil floats on top, with foie gras drowning in grease. Can't even taste the broth—just pure unadulterated fat. Hard pass. 🚫 🥞 Foie Gras Pancake 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Two fluffy pancakes stacked with a huge slab of seared foie gras, drenched in maple syrup and topped with caramelized blueberries & blueberry compote. The sweet-savory balance is perfection—luxurious but not cloying! 🍁🦢 🦆 Canard (Duck Confit) 🌟🌟🌟 Crispy skin, tender meat, and melt-in-your-mouth fat—classic French duck confit. The black vinegar glaze adds acidity, and the braised beans provide texture. Solid, but not mind-blowing. 🔔 Foie Gras Canelé 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 GENIUS ALERT! 🚨 The duck-fat glaze takes this caramelized custard pastry to next-level decadence. Sweet, salty, creamy—ZERO cloying aftertaste. Best bite of the night! 🏆 Final Verdict? • Must-orders: Duck Liver Mousse, Foie Gras Pancake, Foie Gras Canelé. • Skip: Foie-men (unless you're into drinking pure oil). • Pro Tip: Ask for extra bread to mop up all that delicious duck fat! 🥖💦 #FoodieRomance #BucketListDining #TravelForTaste #NoRegretsEats #ChicagoObelix #FrenchCuisine #ChicagoEats #FoodCritic #DuckLovers #FoieGrasHeaven
