Cafe Lago, Montlake
Untitled
I worked there when I was going to school at UW from 1993-1995, a time when it got voted #3 restaurant in Seattle by the P-I. It was the funnest job I’ve ever had, I still have dreams about the lasagne and everything I now know about wine started there. Beyond the fantastic fresh food that we got to partake of during a family-style dinner after each shift, I also once got to see Gary Larson at work as he drew some impromptu sketches right on the table (it was linen covered with butcher paper).
I passed through two years ago and was so glad to see how the restaurant had expanded and thrived. I was torn between the gnocchi and lasagne, but went with the lasagne. Needless to say, I was not disappointed. Good on ya, Carla and Jordi!
