In 1973, Andrew and his father, Master Chef Ming-Tsai Cherng, opened the doors to the first Panda Inn in Pasadena, California. It all began with their vision to create timeless Mandarin and Szechwan dishes mixed with an innovative style. At Panda Inn, the variety of delicious entrées celebrates the remarkable history and authentic taste of China's regional flavors. Panda Inn continues to carry on that tradition by practicing the Chinese art of balancing a mixture of tastes and textures in each entrée to delight the senses.
Using only the freshest ingredients, Hibachi-San prepares all of its entrees on-site and features mouth watering original recipes from Master Chef, Ming-Tsai Cherng. In 1973, Ming-Tsai and his son, Andrew, opened their first restaurant in Pasadena, California. Since then, Panda Restaurant Group has expanded to more than 1400 restaurant locations. Hibachi-San was first introduced in 1992 in Los Angeles, California and continues to offer it's delicious, Japanese inspired cuisine at 28 locations throughout the United States.
With approximately 1,054 locations, Panda Express is the largest Chinese fast food restaurant chain in the United States. Andrew Cherng feels that Panda Express food needs more care and concern than other fast food restaurants. Panda Express tries to pay employees $1-2 more per hour than other nearby fast-food restaurants to get employees to put the extra care and concern into the food.
