French Classics Done Right: Cafe Campagne

After a disappointing dinner the night before, we crossed our fingers that Cafe Campagne would represent Seattle the way Seattle should be represented.

It did! It did! Three cheers for Cafe Campagne.

Omelette a l'epinards -- French rolled omelette filled with spinach and herbed goat fromage blanc served with chicken and pork sausage ($16).


Classic. Simple. Fantastic.

Cassoulet -- Southwest French white bean stew with lamb, pork, duck confit, and garlic sausage ($23).

Worth every penny and then some! Four different meats simmering in beans and seasonings? How could this not be splendid? We love cassoulet, and this was a lovely one.

If you're in the Pike Place area and want a place to brunch, this is it.
