Restaurant Review- Park Cafe on Capitol Hill

Last week I discovered a new favorite restaurant, Park Cafe near Lincoln Park. Its the only restaurant in this completely residential area, which is nice because its very easy to park. The interior is cozy, small and quiet with dim lighting and Capital Hill streetscapes done by local artists on the walls. I had a great salad with sweet pears, walnuts and creamy blue cheese and then the roast chicken and rice, it was all delicious. I also got to try the gazpacho and the duck, both wonderful and flavorful as well. For dessert the waiter recommended the white chocolate cheesecake square with blueberries which was just divine. The owner, Alcione Vinet, is quite a wine collector with thousands of vintage bottles. I would absolutely recommend this for anyone looking for great food and wine on the hill.
