Kasma has a number of advanced students up in the Seattle area. Here are their two
recommended markets and some of their comments (from March, 2007). One asterisk (*) indicates a good market. |
*Viet Wah 12 Jackson Ave.
Seattle, WA 98104 (206) 329-1399 www.vietwah.com | - Viet Wah on South Jackson continues to be my
favorite. ... Just wandering around the International District can be fun and productive. I
sometimes buy from other stores (but don't notice names), but most often return to Viet
Wah.
- Viet Wah is a Vietnamese supermarket which had all kinds of goodies. They have a great
fish market (it looks typically asian and chaotic). ... I always shop at Viet Wah in Seattle or
Uwaji's when on the Eastside.
- It is good 'n' cheap and authentic with all the hard-to-find
dried food stuff you could want. Their fruit 'n' vegetables are a bit limited.

Uwajimaya 600 Fifth Ave. Seattle, WA 98104 (206)
624-6248 www.uwajimaya.com or Uwajimaya 15555 NW 24th St. Bellevue, WA
98007 (425) 747-9012 www.uwajimaya.com | - Corporate and westernized, but they've got a good
sized + quality selection of vegetables, fish and meat. Got a selection of fish sauce, curry paste
and coconut milk but a bit lacking on the esoteric dried ingredients - for those go to Viet Wah.
Also NO selection of kitchen utensils, Viet Wah and other Chinese wholesale markets on S. Jackson
are a lot better.
- Uwajimaya is a higher end Japanese store which has locations on the
Eastside (near Microsoft) and also in Seattle's Chinatown. There's lots of other smaller stores
around the china town area that are worth a quick look. That said, I always shop at Viet Wah in
Seattle or Uwaji's when on the Eastside.
- Uwajimaya is good, but very expensive on most
things.
