From Sparrow’s dinner menu, the Spring Arugula Salad is a bright, seasonal plate here in Kirkland’s Juanita neighborhood, available at $12 / $18.
About the Dish
This salad leans into spring produce. Peppery arugula is tossed with heirloom tomatoes, fennel, asparagus, and peas, then finished with shaved parmesan and a lemon thyme vinaigrette. The fennel adds a gentle anise note, the asparagus and peas bring a sweet, green freshness, and the vinaigrette keeps everything light and bright. Shaved parmesan rounds it out with a savory, salty finish that plays against the peppery arugula. Order the smaller size as a starter to share, or the larger size as a light meal on its own. It is a seasonal favorite that fits right in with a relaxed afternoon on our four-season patio here in Juanita.
What to Drink With It
A crisp, herbaceous white mirrors the lemon and thyme in the vinaigrette. We like it with the Rombauer Sauvignon Blanc, or the Eroica Riesling for a little more roundness and aromatic lift. Both keep things light enough to let the spring vegetables shine. Browse the full beverages menu for more by the glass.
