Dim Sum

This morning we went to the "International District" for Dim Sum and groceries. The International District is basically Seattle's Chinatown. The area was dubbed "International" to reflect the growing diversity in the neighborhood in the 1970s.
The Chinese were among the first settlers in Seattle (in the 1800s). There was also a large influx of Japanese settlers in the 1800s. With the Japanese internment policy of WWII, however, many Japanese were forcibly removed from the area and deported to labor camps. Tragically, few chose to return when the war ended.
Today there is a mix of Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Laotians, and Filipinos, among other Asian communities. We like exploring the markets and restaurants in the area. Today we tried Harbor City BBQ for Dim Sum. It was quite good and really reasonably priced. Needless to say, we ate a little too much.
