The foundation of the food at MEIN is strongly linked to Cantonese cuisine that stems from the historic “Guangdong Province.” It is one of the Eight Culinary Traditions of Chinese cuisine. As Cantonese immigrants have migrated to other parts of Asia via the South China Sea, their influence on other cultures and their cuisine is abundantly clear, and these flavors of “Hong Kong” have rooted themselves in countries such as Vietnam, Malaysia, and Thailand. MEIN restaurant offers food that reflects the immigrant Cantonese experience, and what the Cantonese consider humble “Everyday Food.”
