Brunching at Cafe Campagne

Smoked Salmon at Cafe Campage

Cafe Campagne is one of those places that carries you back to your favorite bistro in Paris, whether you’re seated in the main dining room watching the bartender (or tendress) mix Kir Royales, to the right of the entryway where tourists navigate the steep sidewalk outside the big picture windows, or outside at the cozy cafe tables along Post Alley.

For brunch, I’ve always loved the House-Cured Salmon Gravlax, Salmon Rillettes and Demie-Baguette. It’s served with a fennel, red onion, and citrus salad, but I always order a small field-green salad as well. I figure you never can eat too many greens, and I like the contrast of the salad’s crunchy textures and bitter flavors with the lush salmon.

Lamb Burger at Cafe Campagne

Spencer opts for the Lamb Burger with Balsamic-Grilled Onions, Roasted Peppers, Aïoli, and Pommes Frites, a recipe from my “Pike Place Market Cookbook” that I chose as my Recipe of the Month back in March, 2009.
