Nestled between Pioneer Square and the Central District, the Chinatown-International District or "The I.D." (as locals say) is a richly historic neighborhood with gems both culinary and cultural around just about every corner. Its three distinct neighborhoods of Chinatown, Japantown and Little Saigon comprise the center of Seattle's Asian American community. While many only venture in on weekends for late-night karaoke or recovery dim sum, it has a ton to offer all week long if you're curious enough to find it.
KOBO's second location is housed in the historic Higo Variety Store — a Japanese five and dime store run by the Murakami family for over 75 years — offering Japanese homewares, objects, fine crafts and original art in its rotating gallery space. Whether shopping for yourself or a friend, you're sure to find something truly special at KOBO.
