| At this locals' spot, try chef Jon Magnusson's specialty---house-made, cold-smoked salmon---by itself or served on an open-face quesadilla. Or savor mushroom "cappuccino" served in a coffee cup with a dollop of foamy crème fraîche. Euro-influenced specials such as duck Chambord or hearty beef stroganoff work well here, especially on cold, foggy days. Unusual desserts include marzipan rolled around vanilla ice cream. A colorful mural adorns one wall. A weekend brunch crowd inhales such specialties as turkey Benedict, french toast topped with mango and raspberry, cheese blintzes or the Spanish omelet flipped with chorizo. |
