We decided to dine out before going to the Asian Art Museum, so friends recommended Cafe Septieme up on Broadway on Capitol Hill. We were happy. We found parking nearby for $5 (which seemed awfully pricy) and were an easy walk to the Cafe Septiem. The decor was fun, walls painted jaunty red with cool poster-like art showing a variety of characters -- two large headed children, a sulky viscountess,etc. Seating was comfortable with quite a few outdoors. We were happy to find Stella Artois on tap. My Septiem salad was tasty and they even made it without cheese. Our friends ate burgers and replaced the fries with salad. My husband had a good German style schnitzel with garlic mashed potatoes and everyone's favorite purple cabbage. Meal selection prices were reasonable -- under $20 with burgers and salads under $10.
