The Panda Express story started with an inventive young man, Andrew Cherng, from the picturesque Yangzhou region of China. Andrew’s childhood was filled with the wonderful flavors of authentic Chinese food.

When
Andrew moved to America, he brought his father’s recipes with
him. With the help and business savvy of his wife Peggy, he knew
that a real meal served fast, hot and fresh would catch on like a

chefs to grow from a few Panda kitchens to over 800 nationwide.

Chow Mein. You can also enjoy new taste sensations, like the sweet
