Super Duck

Tastemaker
By Janice Binkert | Feb. 17, 2018

 

Valentine’s Day may be over, but S2S/Sugar2Salt in Traverse City is still stealing hearts, as it has been since opening in June 2017, with an inspired, locally sourced menu of sweet and savory indulgences that will have you falling in love with breakfast all over again. One irresistible dish making us swoon right now is jokingly referred to by chef-owners Jonathan Dayton and Stephanie Wiitala as “Super Duck”: duck ham and duck sausage hash fried in duck fat, crisp-skinned and falling-off-the-bone duck-leg confit, a scattering of curly kale, and a drizzle of honey, all topped with a perfectly cooked sunny-side-up duck egg. Ready to dig in? Pierce the giant yolk with your fork to release the flow of yellow gold that “sauces” the dish. Well worth $16. Follow your nose (and your taste buds) to 1371 Gray Drive (next to the water tower) at Grand Traverse Commons, Traverse City. (231) 492-4616, Search s2s.sugar2salt on Facebook.
