Is there a better quiche in Seattle than the ones at this hole-in-the-wall on a leafy street in Ballard? If you need incentives to drag yourself out of bed (and wait in line outside the door), you won't find many better than this. Baker James Miller's apple Danishes and pains au chocolat are good—and his croissants and brioches are outstanding. Celebrated food writer Corby Kummer of The Atlantic took to Twitter to declare, "OK, I give in. Besalu has the best croissants in the country." But Kummer's admiration wasn't confined to Besalu's buttery croissants, which draw long lines whenever the Ballard bakery's open: "Danish, too," he added, praising the dough.
