Today I went to OREGANO. It is a Franco/Iberian Bistro, which serves French and Spanish/ Portugal food. It is at 3522 Johnson Ave in Riverdale.
At this restaurant there was 1 flat screen tv and it also has old fashion, funky looking lights. Another thing was 2 written on mirrors, they had some of the types of food written on them. There was also what my mom calls subway tiles. There were two paintings, one painting has a beach on it, the second one looks like it is an ad for wine. There is a cool thing for parties (at least my mom said)in the middle of the restaurant- there is a big plant-filled space with tables and chairs, and it even has a glass roof.
I got Canard aux deux Facons, which is (yummy) Duck Leg Confit and Duck Breast with herbed liquor reduction. I loved the duck, I loved it so much that it gave me a new motto: "Get duck when ever you can." I also loved the sauce near the duck. I liked the lasagna shaped sweet potato side dish, which was called sweet potato gratin. Another side dish is roasted fennel, that I didn't like. I tasted it when it was in the sauce and the fennel had one flavor and the sauce had another flavor and they didn't mix well, like water and oil. I also got Pate, which is like a liver moose. I did not like the texture. I also got some snails with butter, that I liked.
It was nice and chewy.
For dessert I had a piece of tres leche cake. It was so good I wanted more. I was the first one to grab the cherry.
I really like this restaurant and I think you would go there and try the duck.
