Panda Inn is a chain of sit-down Chinese restaurants in California owned and operated by the Panda Restaurant Group. Its original founding goal was to bring new varieties of Chinese cuisine, such as Mandarin cuisine and Szechuan cuisine dishes, to Southern California, which had traditionally favored Chinese Cantonese cuisine.〔("About Panda Inn" ), Panda Inn website.〕 == History == The first Panda Inn was founded by Andrew and Peggy Cherng and Andrew's father, Master Chef Ming-Tsai Cherng,〔("About Panda Express (Inn)" ) - archived 2003〕 all of whom used to live in the Yangzhou region of China's Jiangsu province. They started their first Panda Inn restaurant in 1973 in Pasadena, California. In the 1980s, after many Panda Inns had been opened in Southern California, the Cherngs opened the Panda Express chain of fast food restaurants. Andrew Cherng and his wife Peggy Tsiang Cherng are alumni of Baker University in Baldwin City, Kansas.〔("Cherngs honored for contributions in L.A. area" ), ''Baker Pride'' alumni magazine, Baker University, Kansas, Spring 2008 issue.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Panda Inn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
