  • 🥟 Most Thai restaurants in the U.S. don’t serve Pak mor — not because people don’t love it, but because it’s hard to make. At E-Jae Pak Mor, co-owner Pum Yamamoto spent years perfecting the delicate wrapping technique after learning it from a friend’s grandmother. Each dumpling is steamed on a stretched cloth, lifted by hand, and folded while still warm. The process is slow. The results are worth it. Find this rare and beautiful dish — along with other Thai street food favorites — in Seattle’s Chinatown–International District. #seattlefoodies #seattlefoodscene #smallbusinesssuccess #supportyourcommunity #thaistreetfood #seattlesmallbusiness #seattlesmallbiz

  • When it comes to Seattle small business supporters, @therealstefan24frei is a keeper ❤️ Back in 2020, Stef reached out to us directly, asking about how he & his teammates could do more to support local businesses. From helping us celebrate Intentionalist’s 3 year anniversary in 2021, to sharing a meal (and his jersey) at @basarestaurant, to meeting with small business owners at a Sounders FC Pride Game, to his collaborations with @elsomcellars & @proto101official, we have nothing but gratitude for the ways he shows up. Like so many fans and friends, our hearts stopped when we saw him go down at the end of yesterday’s match, and are so glad that he is home from the hospital. Small business owners are fortunate to have Stef in their corner and we hope he knows that we are in his. #BeIntentional #SpendLikeItMatters . . . #intentionalist #seattlesmallbusiness #smallbusinesseveryday #seattlesounders

If you take one thing away from this series we hope it will be: to celebrate immigrants is to celebrate the real story of America.
