	Uwajimaya Seattle, International District \| Yelp
		Uwajimaya is the cleanest, most organized, designed, well-lit, and comfortable Asian supermarket I've been to, the store management sets high standards and it shows.
		I hate to be a voice of dissent, but let me say it anyway: Uwajimaya is certainly not bad, and it's really a mainstay for many people, Asians, Asian-Americans, Caucasians, etc., and a big part of the International District, with its modern, pan-Asian flavor.
		It's always a pain getting into the Uwajimaya car park, it isn't because the car park is SO full, it's because people don't want to walk too far to the store itself, so they stop and wait for the closest parking spot.

		Uwajimaya is the place for me, but I don't end up buying a lot of Asian ingredients precisely because I haven't had easy access to a good store.
		Uwajimaya is the only place I know of that carries a decent selection of good sake.
		I saw several things at 99 Ranch that Uwajimaya doesn't carry, and the fish (still swimming!) and meat looked good and fresh, but I didn't see anything that I would make a special trip for - if I was in the area I would make a point of stopping, though.

		Today I hung out at Pioneer Place at The Apple Store, while a Genius™ diagnosed my recently serviced Macbook to determine why the optical drive decided to crap out and why the laptop for the most part is developmentally disabled.
		Uwajimaya was running an anniversary special, so everything was 10% off.
		I made my rounds and picked up, among other things, a pound of thinly sliced raw pork leg for sukiyaki, mini lemons for.29 cents apiece (they were the size of a lime), nori sheets, frozen chicken and leek dumplings, and two new Korean cup ramen brands I have yet to try.
