Why it matters: Uwajimaya is a beloved Asian grocery and marketplace founded by the Japanese American Moriguchi family in 1928 and still family-run nearly a century later. The flagship in the International District is a wonderland of produce, seafood, sweets and housewares. Browse the food court for lunch and the attached gift and bookshop for stationery and Japanese goods.
