@skinnylatte I don’t generally think of Seattle as particularly ahead of anyone on permitting, wonder what’s different with SF?
Also, not sure what your transit situation is, but there are multiple really good food places around the Asian Family Mart in Bellevue. Mostly Chinese (I don’t know enough to know region sorry) and Taiwanese, I believe. The ID is great of course. But Bellevue I think also has had a lot of immigration too, particularly with MSFT close.
