Pastoral will be serving complimentary duck foie gras on homemade crostini at both its Lakeview and Loop locations this Saturday in an impromptu celebration of the city's repeal of the foie gras ban--never mind that the repeal doesn't go into effect till later this month. Hours are 11 AM-7 PM at 2945 N. Broadway (773-472-4781) and noon-6 PM at 53 E. Lake (312-658-1250).
