ABOUT NIKKY PHINYAWATANA

Chef Nikky (Nikky Phinyawatana) was born in Dallas to an American mom and an Asian dad. Shortly after she was born, her family moved to Thailand, where she grew up experiencing a unique, tasty blend of multicultural, "Texas Thai" cooking. Her Asian family taught her how to make simple things like fried rice taste absolutely delicious, and she learned how to select the freshest vegetables and meats. Her Texan family taught her how to bake scrumptious country-style cakes and cookies. This “Texas Thai/Asian Fusion” upbringing ignited Nikky’s deep passion for food, culture, and travel.

Asian Mint has receive many awards and accolades including Eater Dallas #1 Best Thai Food; CultureMap Dallas’ Top 100 Restaurants; USA Today Featured restaurant; Zagat Featured restaurant; and TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence.
