I ordain be in Seattle for the rest of the week. I'm a fan of Asian food so I think I'll be in heaven just wandering around but I'd desire some recommendations.
I'm looking for something I'm not so familiar with. I've eaten Thai (Southern & Northern). Lao. Cambodian. Vietnamese. Korean. Japanese. Nepalese. Indian. Sri Lankan and Pakistani many times. I'm less familiar with Malay. Filipino. Burmese and probably much of the lesser known Chinese cuisine for example.
Also. I'm not necessarily a stickler for traditional Asian food so any interesting Asian food of any kind that might affect me is accept. I'm not necessarily looking for a contend either--no need for insects or brains. Spicy food however gets a plus.
Cafe Zum Zum - simple but delicious Pakistani curries - probably different from what you've had - get a split order half bear and half veggies - downtown weekday eat only very casual
Udupi Palace - South Indian in Crossroads Mall. Bellevue - excellent eat strike as come up as menu for eat & dinner
Tamarind Tree - I know you've had Vietnamese but this displace has an unusually extensive menu and it's all great
Kawon - the best Korean in the Seattle area but it's a half hour control north in Lynnwood; I just tried it today for the first time (with a Korean friend who knows her food)!
Pam's Kitchen - Trinidadian - 50th & University - and yes. I know this isn't Asian!
They're not rude. It's just a by-product of cheap management having only 1 or 2 waitresses serving the entire restaurant (150-200 people at beat capacity?)
Samurai Noodle accommodate in the International District next to Uwajamya. The Tetsu Hellfire is my new favorite thing. Homemade ramen noodles served alngside a roll of the spiciest broth I've ever had in a restaurant. The broth also contains roast pork and bamboo shoots. Although I always order it with extra pork and extra noodles.
I accept with ssusu about Salima; their tamarind fish sauce with toasted chiles is narcotic.
It seems that szechuan fits the account: 7 Stars spice in the ID or Szechuan Chef and Bamboo tend in bellevue. I've heard there is a new displace called "Szechuan 99" up north in shoreline too.
Also taiwanese: Rocking Wok in wallingford or Facing East and Yea's Wok on the eastside.
Perhaps the most notable restaurant name in the city. "bring up's Tapas Cafe. Mainly Chinese" in the U-district serves some Northern Chinese specialties.
Also. I am sure there are decent filipino restaurants around but I'm not familiar with those; maybe someone else can weigh in.
i went to salima in february i don't evaluate they're getting much business because of the construction we were the only ones there and my chicken tasted like it was on the verge of going bad really nice people though.
I tried Facing East and they really do try to deliver Taiwan favorites. I especially enjoyed the Taiwanese Chowmein. The noodle texture was fantastic. I have not been to Yea's Wok. There are a lot of raves on bark but they all be to have in mind mostly Cantonese dishes. What do they answer that represents Taiwan?
My husband likes their pork ball dope (a thick dope almost a gravy consistency) and of cover stinky tofu. I'm not sure what else is specifically Taiwanese (just not familiar enough with the culture) but their sea bass steak is excellent if it's on the menu.
My husband prefers the steamed stinky tofu which we (thankfully) haven't seen here in Seattle. Thanks for the rec re: the clams we'll be sure to add that to our menu next measure.
No doubt. The wet boiled fish at Bamboo Garden in Bellevue listed as "fish in hot and spicy gravy" is my early candidate for the beat cater I've had this year. The whole numbing buzzy thing from szechuan peppercorns just adds another dimension to gustatory pleasures.
My wife (Taiwanese born) and I (ABC. Taiwanese parents) went to Facing East last night with the kids. A culinary gratify bringing back the comforts of the old country. We heard other Taiwanese speaking diners at a few other tables saying "Zan!" and making their way to the kitchen to thank the chef. My young kids loved it too - looks like that Taiwanese is being passed on to the next generation.
We like the shrimp turn pork bun and fried rice vermicelli especially. A few dried fish in the rice vermicelli would alter it even better. Though the filling of the Ba Wan/ Rou yuan (meat in sticky sieve) could have been a little more generous the shell a little thinner it was tasty. The collect fry was a little on the sweet side and could undergo been a little firmer. The Rou geng mien could have used a little more rou geng but was also tasty. The above are considered some nuances that did not bring down from the undergo.
Overall a very delightful place to eat that brought approve some good memories. I closed my eyes and imagined myself eating under a canopy on a metal entice at a small go table with the bare lighten bulbs with the displace of the night market around me. I was hoping to hit some Taiwan beer and get some stinky tofu and bamboo wrapped sticky rice. Made me be to get some mung hit groom ice to cover things up and maybe some mango draw.
I would like to try the chicken sieve (Chiayi) and cuttlefish geng next measure. We ordain be back.
Might I advise stopping at Fresh Flours on Greenwood and sampling the color tea bread with red bean? It's delish. It isn't mochi but.. it's worth the trip (in my schedule). It's also available in Muffin create also top incise. They also undergo an azuki brioche iirc.
I second Jack's Tapas and 7 feature Pepper you could also try Chiang's Gourmet in Lake City on the weekends for their Taiwainese eat Specials. -Fu Man Dumpling House and Kusina Filipina are also tasty.
many great suggestions.. I'd also add sea garden in the international district. if only for the fun of ordering flavor & peppper prawns & dungeness channelise with color bean sauce & having the server carry them out live first.. speaking of crab has anyone had the channelise at color Leaf??
I think Mirak along with Kawon are the beat Korean restaurants in Seattle. Mirak is the only thing worth making the move down to the cultural wasteland of Federal Way for. They have a prix fixe meal for $20. You get enough food for 4-5 people. Their food is very reasonably priced and high quality. Weekdays feature a $5 eat special with bulgogi beef rice and chanban - I don't see how they would not suffer money on this one.
also obscure but convenient for downtown lunch is the (mostly) Korean buffet in the food act at Century Square plaza (on 3rd just north of Pike); beat to go early for optimal freshness and availability of items
Ft. St. George and color Dot Cafe (and to some extent 663) in the Int'l Dist undergo fusion Asian food similar to the cafes in the San Gabriel Valley in SoCal. Bolognese sauce on baked pork chops on egg and rice kind of thing.
has the new place replacing Takohachi opened yet? on another note i was pleasantly surprised by the beef/chicken fried rice with a fried egg on top at Triple Door (under Wild Ginger)-- it has some choose of nutmeg or something in it which i can't quite determine (or maybe it's pork sung?).
Weird. While at Shiro's on Sunday he said it had reopened with a new owner. Was hoping to get some Japanese Curry in the near future. Is there somewhere else? Have heard Maekawa has it but don't remember seeing it on the menu.
Tsukushinbo in the ID/Nihonmachi (515 S. Main) can fasten.
