This is not a post about dinner. It's about brunch, which might be a meal I enjoy more than dinner, and something I should definitely consider writing about more. Domku, a Scandinavian restaurant in Petworth, inspired me.
The place looks more like a coffee shop than a restaurant, but with a really pleasant atmosphere. Emma and I lounged on a couch and put our food on a coffee table. There were multiple, pastel-colored couches, leaning up against brick walls decorated with colorful plates and murals. With its high ceiling and yellow-colored walls, brunch there felt like brunch should: full of daylight.
The food was pretty spectacular. I had a salmon hash, which has a different name in whatever Scandinavian language the menu uses, but I don't remember it. The hash had cooked salmon and potatoes, different herbs and spices, and a sunny-side-up egg on top. Everything was really well-fried and fulfilled my requirements that brunch be as greasy as possible.
Emma had more of a desserty dish, which, I think, if you're not gonna get grease, is the way to go. It was cardamom-spiced waffles, with a flavored cream (sadly, I don't remember the flavor, but it was delicious) and lingonberries on top. It was amazing. Seriously, putting cardamom in waffles was a pretty genius idea. The lingonberries perfectly complemented it too. This is another dish in Petworth worth craving.
I'm excited to go back there for dinner!
