What Harbinger (Des Moines, IA) cooks with
Duck fat for the Duck Fat Potatoes (named on the menu); other oils assumed, not disclosed. Harbinger at 2724 Ingersoll Ave, Des Moines, IA is an independent small plates restaurant (chef Joe Tripp) that publishes no nutrition. Its menu, read 2026-10-27, names duck fat for its fried potatoes and its ranch; it does not name the oil in its other fried dishes (curry puff, kushikatsu green tomatoes, fried chicken, drummies, crispy sweetbreads, fried Brussels sprouts) or its cooking oil, so those are scored as an unnamed vegetable oil, our assumption. The menu is seasonal and changes often. Portions are not printed, so each serving line says what we assumed. Every value for this restaurant is an estimate.
