I took a day trip to Montreal with one of my new friends here at Yaddo yesterday. The result: one of the most decadant meals of my life at Restaurant Au Pied de Cochon.
All of the entrees we ate had foie gras in them, including the Duck in a Can. The duck, foie gras (and cabbage?) medley is literally cooked in a can and then presented at the table. Below is the video of how it’s served on top of a parsnip puree.
MICHAEL FAUVER (from the French fauve, or “wild beast”) is a novelist and short-fiction writer from Saginaw, MI. His previous identities include closeted rec soccer player and marching band clarinetist, and he trained (briefly) to become a concert pianist at the University of Michigan School of Music. He later earned his Bachelor of Arts in creative writing at George Washington University.
MICHAEL has been awarded fellowships from Yaddo, The MacDowell Colony, and the Iowa Writers’ Workshop, where he also served as the associate fiction editor of The Iowa Review. He was recently named one of "Five New Queer Voices to Watch Out For" by Lambda Literary.
