Goose or duck. It didn't specify. And no idea about marinade. It was definitely a whole lobe and there was a sauce with it and some other stuff on the plate. I was a bit boozed up by this point in the evening

Some places it is. Apparently not in Charleston, SC. I'll admit, that was definitely part of the appeal

I feel like it's one of those things from medieval or Renaissance europe where part of a cook's job was just coming up with rare foods so royalty and nobility could impress other big shots. Like Ortolan and songbirds in general.
Meant to quote @PacificRimJob here

Shit is actually delicious if you have the right kind. There's a lot of bad foie gras out there.
