Alex and Leah on one of their farmer’s market days
Alex and Leah, (pictured above) are the team behind Café Lolo.
You may have seen their booth or eaten their wares
at numerous Seattle farmer’s markets where they prepare hot pasta dishes
using all local ingredients including Washington grains that they mill themselves.
They both have rich and varied backgrounds in the restaurant and food scene.
Alex used to be the man behind the pasta at Spinasse restaurant in Capitol Hill and Leah is a pastry diva and used to run the kitchen at Coyle’s Bakeshop in Greenwood.
And they’re not just the couple behind Café Lolo, they’re also part of the team at Three Sacks Full!
Three Sacks Full owners, Michael & Matthew will be taking a much needed vacation after their first year in business at the end of this month.
So while the cat’s away, the mice will play!

(the restaurant will not be open on Sundays: 26th, 2nd, 9th)
And it won’t just be pasta…
