Do you prefer duck breast or duck confit? Here's a list of the best places in Paris to enjoy these traditional dishes from the South-West!

Spearheading the cuisine of the South-West , where duck meat is very popular, confit de canard and magret de canard are dishes that are as generous as they are comforting. And there's nothing more satisfying than knowing that you don't have to take a train to the South-West to feast on these marvels, as they are served at the tables of many traditional restaurants in Paris.

Confit de canard is a dish based on duck legs confit in their own fat. Marinated in aromatic herbs for several hours, the legs are then slowly confit until tender and juicy. The confit is usually served with sautéed potatoes, for maximum indulgence.

Magret de canard (duck breast) is a fillet of duck breast, one of the noblest parts of the animal. Generally grilled or pan-fried over high heat for quick cooking, magret is served pink inside to preserve all its softness. It can also be served with a cherry or orange sauce.
