Years ago, Renton folks had to venture to Chinatown/International District for Asian groceries and dim sum. Not anymore. Owned by Faye and Janie Hong, Hong’s Garden Restaurant was the first to serve dim sum in Renton more than a decade ago.
If you Google the place, there are more than 40 Asian restaurants in the area. No wonder business in the ID dwindles. All suburbs offer Asian groceries and tons of restaurants. It’s not just happening in Seattle’s ID, but all over the country. Every business has to improve its quality and service or else it won’t survive. ♦
