The Buzz: Seattle’s Bastille Café & Bar takes its authenticity seriously. With a molded zinc bar, Parisian flea market decor and a downright unpronounceable menu, this brasserie transports the Pacific Northwest to the City of Lights. Executive chef Shannon Galusha well-known in town for Veil , cranks out late-night boulangerie fare, with a West Coast twist: veggies plucked straight from the rooftop garden.
