It's coming... Bastille is moving toward the summer. As soon as the Farmer's markets and the Garden are producing the stapples of the summer: tomatoes, eggplants, summer squashes, peaches...
Stay tuned, it could happen very soon.
From July 3rd to July 14th (Bastille Day),
We will celebrate the American and the French Revolutions with a special offering, a three-course prix-fixe dinner.
June 24, 2009
Bastille restaurant and The Winery partnered together with Elite Wines Import to bring you unique and eclectic wines from well-known regions of France. The evening was a success with a sold-out restaurant.
Stay tuned for the annoucement of the next wine dinner.
2009 Rammy Awards
June 10, 2009
Bastille and Alexandria Top restaurants stole the show at the RAMMY Award Gala on Sunday, June 7 2009 !
Our good friends of Restaurant Eve took the well-deserved top award of the night:
Best Fine Dining Restaurant. Congratulations to Meshelle and Cathal Armstrong !
Also, Tony Chittum of Vermillion, takes the Rising Culinary Start of the year! Congrats Chef ! Although our dear friend from Majestic Cafe, Shannon Overmiller could have taken it as well, we are very happy for Tony after many previous nominations. He's shown some enduring consistency and talent.
Last but not least, even though Michelle has shown that she is part of the top Pastry Chefs in the Nation's Capital, we are delighted to see the Award go to one of the best talents in her profession, Kate Jensen from Willow restaurant. She is a friend and one of the best in the country. With Tracy O'Grady, they are one of the best teams in the nation (Bastille's team amongst them)....The evening was a lot of fun (too much for some !) and we are very greatful to all our customers, employees, friends, and suppliers... for their continued support.
We'll be back in 2010 !
