If you like spicy food, try the little Sichuan place in the shopping plaza at the NW corner of 12th and S. Jackson. About as close as you can get to the real thing in Seattle. We used to go there all the time when we were in grad school. Not sure if they still have them, but you used to be able to get big bags of dumplings to take home and keep in the freezer -- great meal in a pinch.
Enjoy exploring the neighborhood. The ID is a great place to food shop and experiment with different tastes!
