Cafe Sophie coming to Montgomery County Airpark

Norwegian Meatballs at Cafe Sophie

There will soon be yet another reason to go to the Montgomery County Airpark. Cafe Sophie, a European-style restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, will open in the former Airport Cafe space in July 2021. According to DC Metro Aviation Services at the Airpark, the cafe space will have a new look. The cafe is named for the owners' dog, Sophie, and several dishes will be Norwegian, as one of the owners is from Bergen, Norway.

I'm particularly excited to see Norwegian Meatballs on the menu. While not exactly the same, Swedish Meatballs has always been a favorite dish of mine, but today is virtually non-existent on American restaurant menus outside of IKEA. But as you see in the photo above, these Norwegian meatballs are served with some type of berry garnish, as Swedish meatballs properly would be. Other dishes previewed on the Cafe Sophie Facebook page include Scandinavian Wieners, and several varieties of homemade soup.
