I decided to visit Tai Tung Restaurant located in Seattle Chinatown International District. Established in 1935, this is Seattle's oldest Chinese Restaurant. This restaurant aslo happens to be the martial artist/philosopher/legend Bruce Lee's favorite.

Once you enter the restaurant, nostalgia will automatically kick and you will be taken back in time. Tai Tung hasn't changed much (or at all) over the last many decades, and I sort of like it. As someone who grew up in Seattle in the 80's, this place brings back a lot of fond memories.

Once seated at Bruce Lee's booth in the back of the restaurant, I check out the many posters and photos of Bruce Lee and order his favorite dishes including beef in oyster sauce, garlic shrimp and cabbage soup.

After my meal I had the pleasure of catching up with Harry Chan, owner of Tai Tung. Harry has worked at the restaurant for over 50 years. He offered some advice on how and what to order when you visit Tai Tung. While I ordered Bruce Lee's favorite dishes during my visit, there's actually a different strategy that Harry offers.

Tai Tung is a must for locals and tourists alike. If you're a Bruce Lee fan or simply enjoy Chinese comfort food, this place is a must. Play this place a visit, Harry will be there to greet you!
