Cafe Juanita -- fine-dining in Kirkland, WA

I visited my sister, brother-in-law and nephews for five days in September. It was too short but that did not stop us from having some very good meals! One of the highlights was dining at Cafe Juanita in Kirkland. The food was nicely done, the drinks heavenly and the service was friendly and relaxed.

Must-try dishes:

Grilled Octopus with Fennel, Green sauce and Chickpea Puré

Saddle of Oregon Lamb with Leek Nectarine Tortino, Fried Rosemary and Reduced Brodo

Local Rabbit Braised in Arneis with Ligurian Chickpea Crepe, Pancetta and Porcini
