Min Jiang
Min Jiang has been a household name for quite some time. Since 1982, the beloved restaurant has served excellent Cantonese and Sichuan cuisine; its quality has remained consistent over the years. But now, after 38 years, it's time for a change.
It all starts with the worn-out interior. Following renovations, the new Min Jiang has a sleeker, brighter environment. Soft textile panels, exquisite white marble tabletops, and onyx wall panels dress up the pleasant, sepia-toned interior. However, not everything is modern; dashes of chinoiserie help keep an old-school appeal that harkens back to the roots of the stalwart Chinese restaurant. Custom latticed chandeliers resembling Asian fishing baskets adorn the ceiling. Regular visitors will recognize the upholstered chairs as well; the cloth, which was found in the old Min Jiang, has been repurposed and given new life.
To commemorate the restaurant's new chapter, the menu has also been modified. New dim sum items include steamed pumpkin balls ($6.20 for three) and homemade squid tofu with XO sauce ($7.80 for three), as well as deep-fried filled dough sticks with shredded abalone and enoki mushroom ($36) and roasted chicken skin with prawn paste in sesame pockets ($36). The sumptuous wonton noodles ($18) with delicious Argentinian red prawns are also worth a try.
