A Night at Cafe Thordis

We're very lucky that Cafe Thordis is only a hop and a skip away, especially on sweltering summer nights when the span of five city blocks seems like a crawl through an infernal sauna. Greeted at the door with a blast of a/c and a cheerful David H., Cafe Drake proceeded to spend a cool evening filled with good food, wine and fellowship. Thordis and David prepared fresh pasta topped with assorted summer veggies and a salad comprised of baby greens, sweet pea tendrils and fresh mint dressed in a soy vinaigrette. Dessert was a platter of Dutch cheeses and Icelandic wild moss schnapps. Good coffee, lots more wine and a quick lesson in ballroom dancing rounded out a lovely dinner party.
