International House of Crabs

Off to Chinatown - er, the International District - for dinner ...


My favorite - the Boy Boy's Salon:



HoHo ... it's not just a restaurant, it's a way of life:






The International District Gate:






Mmmm ... Sea Garden:





Scott's dinner - before:








And after:





Scott likes crab:





Man, I just can't take a good picture lately. No wonder I didn't win:


Hope y'all had a good weekend.

You're making me homesick!!! Haven't been back to my home in over 2 years. Haven't been to International District in probably 6 years. I don't remember the gate, and am guessing that's new? They always needed that as most large chinatowns do!

OK, I've got a question:

Boy Boy's Salon ???

Is it for boys? Run by boys? A front? And it's you favorite because?

I've been to a few boy boy salons in my day but they didn't look quite like that one.

anythingbutsad - yes, the gate is new. Actually that was the first time I'd seen it! Much better than the dragon-painted columns under I-5 heading in on Jackson Street ... :)

Sorted - it was Dungeness crab with ginger and green onions. I opted for almond chicken. I don't like have to break something's body open and suck it out to eat dinner.

Paul - really, no clue whatsoever. Could be any and all of the above. I just thought the name was funny. I don't think I'd get my nails done there.

Tank - I'll bet.

strangerelationship - sorry, I sent you a "hi" e-mail tonight!

Ok, I see Scott got crabs but what did you get? That's what you get for hanging out in some place called Boy Boy Salon. Shame on you both. ;-)
