Different addresses — same great eats. Six popular Seattle restaurants recently packed up their knives and moved to new locations — two just in the past week alone and one under the same name, but new ownership.
The bigger digs will allow chefs to experiment with menu items and give customers more room to spread out. Good thing, too — we have big appetites. Here’s what’s new on the block:
Glo’s Cafe, 928 E. Barbara Bailey Way
Known for: Diner breakfast + brunch staples like eggs Benedicts, waffles, and hash browns.
What’s new: Bloody marys (thanks to a new liquor license) and expanded espresso options

Known for: Korean-influenced comfort food and colorful, cereal-crusted French toast
What’s new: Soft serve ice cream
Kedai Makan, 1449 E. Pine St.

What’s new: The ownership, for starters, and more manageable wait times
Simply Soulful, 2321 S. Jackson St.
