NESTLED AWAY IN SOUTH TULSA ON THE NORTH EAST CORNER OF 81ST AND MINGO, KIRIN SERVES DELICIOUS ASIAN CUISINE AND SUSHI. The plates are a delight to the eye as well as the palate as each one has been carefully crafted to perfection. Kirin offers a wide array of appetizers from egg rolls to chicken lettuce wraps. They serve traditional to more Americanized entrees and sushi with the freshest of ingredients along with home-made sauces. Kirin’s Chef Daniel has always had an obsession with high quality foods which lead him to his love of making Sushi. Inspired by the Masters of sushi who have come before him, he works diligently to make sure that every aspect of his sushi is perfect. Every morning he starts off with two hours just to make rice and then inspects the fish for the day. He concludes with making his own sauces to complement his creations. Nowhere is this more apparent than in his Dynamite roll. This roll is made to show off the balance of ingredients, every flavor unique throughout the roll and yet coming together for a perfect experience.
