Shenton Park gets a jolt of genuine Parisian bistro life at La Bastide. Tables fill quickly with diners pairing Bordeaux with magret de canard, hand-cut steak tartare, and sirloin steak frites slicked in café de Paris butter. Out on the shaded courtyard deck, dogs lounge beneath the tables while carafes empty over leisurely afternoon plates. Evening shifts the room into intimate territory—all warm woodwork, French playlists, and spoons cracking through caramelized crème brûlée.
