MUSANG ❤️s ORIENTAL MART!

Where would we be without you, Tita Leila? Icon of Pike Place Market. James Beard American Icon. And an all around bad ass. 👑

Oriental Mart opened in Pike Place back in 1973. Leila's mother opened the shop as a grocery, and then Leila took on the cooking side of the business in 1987. Since then, she's collected loyal fans from all over the world. And rightfully so. Her salmon collar sinigang is just one of the dishes that make us see stars. 🤩

If your next trip to Pike Place doesn’t include Oriental Mart… you’re wrong 🤣 You can usually catch Tita cooking up goodness every day from 11am to 3pm.

Your soul warming dishes and hilariously snarky signs bring out the best in us. You've taught us how to hustle, take no shit, and trust the process. Thank you, Tita, for everything you are! ❤️💙💛

Long live Oriental Mart and Tita Leila!!!
