Ever looked at a whole duck and thought, "Yeah, I deserve this"? Because that was me last night. No dinner party, no special occasion—just me, my kitchen, and a stubborn craving for crispy skin and juicy meat. I brined, I basted, I roasted. The apartment smelled like a five-star restaurant, and honestly, I felt like a culinary genius (until I realized I had to eat the whole thing myself). No regrets, though. Slicing into that golden-brown skin was pure therapy. Did I eat it all in one sitting? No. Did I try? Absolutely. Now I have leftovers for days, and my fridge looks like a duck-themed episode of MasterChef. Moral of the story: You don’t need a crowd to treat yourself. Sometimes, the best company is a perfectly roasted duck and your own unapologetic appetite. #SoloDining #RoastDuck #FoodieLife #Food #Foodie
