Our winter menu 2018 started yesterday at Café Presse and we are really excited about it!   In addition to the dishes shown here, this change marked the return to our menu of two of our cold weather favorites:  Raclette Savoyarde and Axoa d’Espelette.

Here are some photos from the traditional staff menu tasting to whet your appetite!

  1. Dear Cafe Presse

    Since last year’s return celebration of Campagne’s beloved cassoulet I have been hoping something would arise on your menu. Either my Friday end of week eyes deceive me or I see a picture above and not description . Am I dreaming or do you have duck confit and cassoulet on the new menu!? 🙂

    1. Malheureusement non. We have a dish on the new menu that is a leg of duck confit pan roasted and served on a ragout of white beans simmered with red wine and onions, with sauteed escarole…we hope delicious but decidely not cassoulet.
