According to Urban Daddy , MF Sushi from brothers Chris and Alex Kinjo will finally return to Atlanta on Friday with a new restaurant in Inman Park.
Recently, AJC chief restaurant critic John Kessler wrote a fascinating Personal Journeys feature on the Kinjo brothers, chronicling the critical acclaim and closing of their original Atlanta restaurants, their move to Houston and struggles there, and planned return:
Three years after closing their group of high-end Asian restaurants, Chris and his brother Alex plan to bring their brand, MF Sushi, back to Atlanta. Flashy, talented and self-mythologizing, the Kinjo brothers are getting ready to write the latest chapter in their family’s saga. They have opened and closed restaurants five times, made and lost millions of dollars and have been so destitute they’ve lived out of suitcases, homeless save for a mattress in a relative’s living room. This spring they will debut landmark sushi restaurants simultaneously in Inman Park and in Houston’s high-end Museum District. It has been a wild ride for this pair of swaggering brothers who came from... ...well, where exactly?
It will be very interesting to the see what happens next....
