Here is another restaurant my husband introduced me to- Nhinja. He actually learned about it from the owner, Kang Nhin. He always likes trying new places, so one night he took Mae with him for dinner. If she liked it then he knew I would like it. About a month later we went and even though I really like my Chinese food from a buffet, it wasn’t bad.
They do have a pretty big selection on their menu but I’ve recently been on a sushi trip and they have some of the best in town. First of all, they list the ingredients on the menu. I’m real picky about what I have in my sushi- no caviar or fish eggs of any sort, no salmon, light on the veggies. So it’s easy to order your sushi and it’s made right then, hasn’t been sitting around. The rolls are huge, so one roll is more than enough for one person. My two favorites are the Thunder and Geisha, but the others I have had are good as well. My husband has tried almost everything on the menu but his favorite is the Cashew Chicken. Once again, huge portions with lots of veggies and rice. Mae is more predictable, she sticks with her Honey Chicken and then won’t eat the rice. We do almost always start with the Cream Cheese Puffs. Crab meat, cream cheese, and scallions wrapped up and deep-fried.
The service is always good, no matter if you are eating there or getting it for take out. The atmosphere is fun, lots of colors, and bottles of Japanese sodas on the wall. I give it five strips of bacon. There are five locations around Oklahoma City, so it should be easy to find one.
