Feb. 17--If there's a better bird than the sized-for-two roasted duck at Kevin Hickey's Bridgeport hangout (in a former pre-Prohibition tavern), I've yet to try it. Throw in a few other exemplary dishes (potted foie gras, chicken thigh with spaetzle) and a terrific, bargain-priced cocktail list, and you've got a slice of South Side heaven.
