Din Tai Fung, multiple locations
Taiwan-based dumpling chain Din Tai Fung is best known for two things: its famous signature soup dumplings and the long lines to get them. To ease the wait, each restaurant offers a viewing area where customers can watch the legendary dumplings being made. Din Tai Fung employees are carefully trained (training takes about two years) so that each dumpling receives exactly 18 pleats, ensuring consistency — and a mesmerizing process to watch.
Location: Local Din Tai Fung locations: University Village (2621 N.E. 46th St., Seattle), Pacific Place (600 Pine St., Seattle), Bellevue (10455 N.E. Eighth Street, Bellevue), and Westfield Southcenter (181 Southcenter Mall, Tukwila).
