Macrina


It seems that no matter what Seattle neighorhood you wander into, you'll find a culinary gem.

One misty morning while driving around an area known as Queene Anne , we happened upon Macrina. Our tummies rumbling, we pulled over and headed inside the tiny cafe. Warm and cozy, with stone floors, small parisian style bistro tables, and old world style display cases full of pastries and fresh baked breads, the place was full of people and conversation. While in queue to order, we scoped out the cafe for any prospects of a table. Luckily, by the time we made it to the counter one had opened up.
The menu was full of mouth watering options. Sweet or savory is always a pleasant predicament. It was between the Brioche French Toast (French toasted topped with fresh sliced apricots, creme craiche and lavendar infused honey with whipped butter and apple pork sausage links) or the Smoked Salmon Scramble (eggs softly scrambled and served with onion baily, cold smaoke salmon and herbed creme fraiche. Served with roasted potatoes and a salad of organic greens.) Ending up choosing the French toast, it was not disappointment!
