Evan Toretto Li, founder of Nin Hao, aims to showcase Fujianese cuisine in NYC, highlighting its distinct flavors and cultural identity within the broader Chinese culinary scene.
'There's more to Chinese cuisine than just Sichuanese, Shanghainese, Cantonese,' says Li, emphasizing the need for greater representation of Fujianese culinary heritage.
Nin Hao features a bright dining space designed with community and art in mind, including a hand-painted dragon mural that tells 23 stories from the artist's life.
Li chose Prospect Heights for Nin Hao due to its family-friendly atmosphere and strong community ties, wanting to create a restaurant that feels like home.
