If you're in the International District anytime between 10am and 4:30pm and want to sample the best dim sum in Seattle, head for the House of Hong. It's located at the uphill end of the neighborhood in a big yellow building. All the little dumplings, pot stickers, and stuffed wontons that comprise the standards of dim sum are done to perfection here -- not too greasy, not too starchy, with plenty of meat in the fillings. Keep an eye out for the whole fried shrimp, crunchy on the outside and moist and meaty on the inside. There's lots of variety to the dim sum offerings, so pace yourself and keep an eye out for whatever looks particularly appetizing. The House of Hong also has free parking.
