Café Hagen now open in Queen Anne
High atop the Queen Anne hill and under the shadow of the city’s most visible crane, a new coffee shop opened its doors for the first time over the weekend. This is no ordinary coffee shop, however. Café Hagen is a bakery, a restaurant, a coffee roaster and more. Hygge is the Danish concept of creating a warm atmosphere to enjoy good things with good people, and that is exactly what Café Hagen strives to do, owner Maria Beck said, adding she wants to provide a special atmosphere with the greatest people and the greatest food. “You will feel special when you come to see us,” she said. Café Hagen (2128 Queen Anne Ave. N.) is currently open daily from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., serving coffee, tea, breakfast and lunch; dinner and cocktails are coming soon. The bakery offers fresh baked goods, breakfast sandwiches and lunch items ranging from $9-17. The signature Café Hagen brunch is a traditional Scandinavian-style brunch priced at $21. and includes a little bit of everything: a Danish waffle with seasonal jam and whipped cream, craft cheese, avocado, housebaked bread and butter, scrambled eggs and choice of bacon, sausage or mushrooms. Lunch items include a range of sandwiches on house baked breads and salads with organic produce. The pastries and baked goods are all made from scratch, including the handcrafted syrups

Leadership: For the last 43 years the King County Prosecutor’s office has been led by just two individuals — both men. Dan Satterberg for the last 14 years and before that Norm Maleng who took office in 1979.
Q. Leesa, this is your home court, but how to you plan to carve out your own leadership vision and what will you change if you step into the leadership role? “I stand to serve as the first woman and the first person of color to hold this seat, and I will bring to this office 27 proven years of experience and a different perspective and lived experience,” Manion said, adding she has nothing but deep respect for Maleng and Satterberg but that it’s time to have a prosecuting attorney that reflects the diversity of the community that the office serves.
