It's actually Duck breast with Prunes poached in wine, and sweet potato hash that's cooked in the duck fat from the rendered skin, and spiced with a North African spice blend. The wine reduction/veal stock sauce is infused with the prune poaching liquid thus the black color and deep rich flavor that is mistaken for balsamic.

Maybe it's just the huck-duck rhyme. Regardless, one to add to our hit list. Thanks for the tip!

Perfectly cooked duck breast sliced on top of mashed sweet potatoes topped with a seared slice of controversial-yet-delicious foie gras surrounded by a sweet and tangy huckleberry sauce. Everything worked so well together. You know that perfect bite? Like the one at Thanksgiving that has a bit of turkey and a bit of stuffing that you drag through the gravy and mashed and top with some cranberry sauce. This was kind of like that. <br><br>By the way, tonight is the last night the Clifton is offering 50% of their menu. They have been running it for the last few Monday and Tuesday nights. It is a great way to check out what it has to offer. Had a similar dish at Clifton Inn last night.
