There is a place in Bangor called Ichiban, which seems to have decent reviews. You can have periodic trips to Bangor to get your ethnic cuisine fix! 
I've also seen that there is a Pakistani restaurant in Bangor, & an Indian place.
I'm trying to learn to cook some of the different styles of food I enjoy... while I still have the original to compare. It's fun, & a lot of ethnic food is cheaper & easier to make than I realized.  |

Our favorite was China Wall near Day's Jewelers in Bangor, but it is closing. The food was very good but the location was bad, no-one could find it. However, the same people own these three restaurants, and we want to check them out:
House of Hunan, Wilson St, Brewer
China Garden, University Mall, Orono
Chopstix, Center St., Bangor
The China Buffet in Bangor near the movie theaters is ok.

How about good sushi? I can make my own, but we love to go out and have a romantic dinner, share sushi and warm sake.........I would imagine we could get some incredibly fresh sushi there somewhere!

I'm pretty sure Ichiban has sushi, from reading the reviews. |

I went there once, and my experience was good. Anyone else find it okay?
One time visit is hard to say is always good.  |
I used to take my son there a lot when he was younger because he loved it (and because under 7 eat free!). It was always packed with business people for the lunch hour. And then.... the last few times I have gone there, the place has been pretty empty during lunch and I think I know why- the quality of food has gone downhill, at least from what I saw and tasted...
I still miss Sing's.  |

I'm glad to hear there are Japanese restaurants in Bangor. We just discovered Sakura on western Ave in Augusta, and that is very good. Surprising also, our Hannaford's in Belfast has a good sushi bar.

Hannaford's is awesome! We thought we would miss HEB when we first moved here from Texas, but we don't. Hannaford's has a great selection.
I love being able to pick up vodka to go with the orange juice! One-stop shopping!
