The name MINQ Kitchen is inspired by the 14th century Ming Dynasty, the first Chinese dynasty that paid attention on how food was presented. This was due to the use of eclectic dinnerware- porcelain produced during the Ming Dynasty, which is still considered the finest in Chinese history.

MINQ Kitchen embraces the fusion and evolution of cultures, while still respecting and valuing passed down traditions.
