Evan Toretto Li's Nin Hao restaurant in Prospect Heights showcases Fujianese cuisine, bringing unique dishes like beef ban ban rice noodles to Brooklyn's diverse food scene.
Li emphasized that 'Chinese food is more than just Cantonese, Shanghainese, and Sichuan! But no one was representing that,’ highlighting the underrepresentation of Fujianese food.
The mural by Chemin Hsiao in Nin Hao enhances the restaurant's ambiance, reflecting Li's desire to create joy in the neighborhood through authentic food experiences.
The restaurant's name, Nin Hao, means 'hello' in a respectful way, symbolizing Li's approach to welcoming the community with his family's culinary traditions.
