Michael Le and Tanya Jimenez have been running Mushi Ni as a pop-up for years, building a following for their Asian comfort food. Today they finally have a permanent home on Elizabeth Street in Inman Park, just around the corner from Victory Sandwich Bar.
The menu features Peking chicken platters ($25, feeds two), soft shell crab bao, chicken longanisa bao, umami fries, and crab Rangoon puffs. They've partnered with Ian Jones of Victory Brands on the venture, which means the cocktail program is solid. Try the Thai tea martini.
Both chefs are industry veterans. Jimenez worked for Gordon Ramsay in NYC before joining Anne Quatrano at Bacchanalia. Le did stints at One Hotel Miami and spots in Peachtree City. This is their first place of their own.
