Cafe Campagne
November 2nd, 2009 by admin
We went to Café Campagne for dinner, because I knew it was the type of place that John would like. I can’t figure out why it’s not completely full every night–the food is great, and it’s got an informal vibe that the upstairs restaurant doesn’t (I found the latter a bit cold, even though the food was great.) We started with a couple of appetizers–the Brandade de Morue (salt cod purée) and the Paté de Campagne, which is one of the best I’ve had (though nothing beats my friend Pascal’s homemade paté). I had a lamb shoulder served with a flatbread made of chickpeas. John had the Merguez sausage, and Lynn had the prix fixe with a salad, truite amandine, and a caramel pot de crème with a bit of fleur de sel sprinkled on top, which was to be mixed in. Lynn was kind of full, so we all shared the pot de crème, which was luscious. After dinner, we had some coffee using my flavored coffee pods.
