The Stranger

Greg Campbell and his wife, Carrie, were Garfield High School sweethearts (go Bulldogs!) and are as nice as people can be. Greg was the chef of Kirkland’s late, schmancy Third Floor Fish Cafe; now he’s got his own lunch spot in Magnolia, Wheeler Street Kitchen, with Carrie as his partner. The Campbells’ soups come in a cup as big as a bowl or a bowl as big as your head for just $1 more. The chili is practically all braised beef; the butternut squash has a swirl of curry cream. Greg says those who try the butternut can’t get past it—a great rut to be stuck in. (Wheeler Street Kitchen, 3216 W Wheeler St, 257-0213, 11 am–3 pm) by Bethany Jean Clement
