Barely a month into the move and Seattle has given me a new favorite food: Cantonese hum-bao rolls, steamed pastries filled with anything from BBQ pork (the best) to curry chicken, vegetables, and a lot of other things. There's a lot of confusion surrounding the name, wikipedia has an article about them entitled baozi which has them credited to " the scholar and military strategist Zhuge Liang (3rd century AD)" either way they are absolutely delicious. They're on the menu at Mee Sum Pastry as hum-bao's and insanely delicious there, I've been to their shops in the university district and down by the market downtown and both serve up crazy good chinese bbq pork pastries that always leave me feeling like "I want Mee Sum More."
