New Jin Jin Chinese Restaurant near Inlet Beach

Re: Chinese Restaurant to Open near Inlet Beach

Thanks for the update. I have had my eye on them. Is that the same owners as the one in Dfunk? Will they have buffet? It is so rare these days to find good chineses food outside of a big city. Let us know how it is.

I can not wait. I have been watching them also. I hope they are good, littleIBD can eat her weight in Chinese food...:floor:

F.Y.I. the "New Jin Jin" Chinese Restaurant will open tomorrow (12-28) in the Cariillon Beach Publix shopping center.

We picked up a menu and it is extensive, with nothing over $11.00. Lunch specials are under $6.00.

Hope the food is good!

We eat at the one in DeFuniak, to go, about once a week. They package the meals in plastic trays with plastic lids. I just recently noticed at the house that I have dozens of these things. What ever happened to those aluminum foil containers, or the paper square ones? Would those not be more enviromentally friendly then all of these plastic trays?

Not if you can reuse them. That's #2 in the conservation cycle. ;-)

And the foil ones always seem to give the food inside of them an odd (but probably not surprising) metallic taste.

If you take your lunch to the shop, and the leftovers of the day are spaghetti or chili or anything with tomato sauce, use those instead of fancy clear plastic containers. They also hold paper clips well. And shrimp shells. And computer parts! 😀

I had a date with Margerita at Pizza By The Sea but I stopped in to Jin Jin and picked up a menu. The menu is fully loaded as were all the tables. The food on the plates looked good.

Re: Chinese Restaurant to Open near Inlet Beach

I had dinner there tonite. I ordered my standard Chinese test meal. The shrimp with lobster sauce combination plate. Came with an egg roll and pork fried rice. I also ordered an egg drop soup. The soup was good as was the egg roll. The shrimps were fresh but the cook included some of those funny seafood "legs" in the sauce which I took out. I am a purist about my shrimp with lobster sauce. The dish was very good though and all the food was piping hot. The fried rice was just ok......I attribute this too the fact that all the woks are new and need a few weeks of "seasoning." Everything was ridiculously inexpensive. :clap:

Re: Chinese Restaurant to Open near Inlet Beach

Just had lunch :clap:AMAZING:clap:

They were very busy and yet all the staff was very nice and the food was incredible. I will usally give a new restaurant alot of slack the first month they are open just so they may "work out the bugs", however I see myself trying most of the menu over the next several months( it could take longer the menu is huge). Way to go Jin Jin

Manna from Heaven!!

Hubby and I feasted on egg drop soup, sweet and sour chicken and pork fried rice tonight. It was awesome. Whole meal was like $16 for the two of us and we have lots of leftovers.

They are going to stay open until 10 p.m. during the week and 10:30 p.m. on the weekends. Awesome! Cheap Chinese food a stone's throw from 30A.

We are sooooo happy!

Re: Chinese Restaurant to Open near Inlet Beach

Can't wait! From the east end, it was always such a drive to pickup Chinese. This is grayt news :clap:

New Jin-Jin's now has the ShallowsFamily's seal of approval, even Squirt's. And it's always a good day when we find places that suit his palate. 😀

I ate lunch the day they opened. It was ok, and they were Extreamly Busy!!
when i got home to eat i noticed they forgot my egg roll. Once they get on thier feet and realize they need to deliever to rosemary and seacrest, they will blow alot of people away= kill other fast food! but for lunch- Summer kitchen in rosemary is the best!

Had dinner there last nite. Tried the chicken with cashews, an egg roll and egg drop soup. Excellent on a cold nite. JIN JIN is consistent and very good and extremely economical.:clap::clap:

If you got the lunch special, I think you have to order an egg roll extra. I didn't get one either. But, what do you want for five bucks? I'll give them another dollar for an egg roll.
