Easter Brunch 2006



Cafe Drake hosted its annual Easter Brunch this year, on a gloriously bright afternoon, dim only in comparison to the highly polished friends gathered round the holiday table. Food was served buffet style, after a round of our house Bloody Marys. On the sideboard (actually, um, the kitchen counter) lay a clove and pineapple baked ham, roasted leg of lamb, scalloped potatoes, fruit salad (Thanks Jen!), petit peas with shallots and mint, assorted roasted peppers, deviled eggs and lemon muffins. Courtesy of Octavio we had a marvelous carrot cake for dessert, with much-needed cups of strong coffee to counteract the food coma. An additional treat was provided by our favorite sommoliers Reiner and Esther - a vintage 1995 rose from the house of R. Lopez de Heredia Vina Condonia. Happy Easter and Passover to all our visitors!!
