Little Uncle (CLOSED)

This Seattle storefront, true to its name, is teeny-tiny, but locals elbow in to slurp up bright, boldly flavored noodle soups: rice noodles, rich with spiced braised beef and fragrant with fried garlic; egg noodles, bathed in coconutty red curry and funkified with house-pickled Chinese mustard; bean thread noodles laced with ground pork, roasted pork and crunchy peanuts. Fearful of overly sweet pad thai? Here, the sugar comes on the side, for you to add at your own discretion.
