My favorite way to do business is the Landmark Education Forum.

When you do life a certain way, it's bound to give you a higher level of probability to succeed, and that's what we preach.

We opened Panda Inn on June 8, 1973. The whole family - my parents, a brother and sister - all worked at the restaurant for free. We lived in a two-bedroom apartment in San Gabriel and didn't have any money.

Success is not an accident. When you put yourself in the right place at the right time, then you're likely to be more successful because of how you prepare yourself on a daily basis.

Panda - We're not really selling Chinese food, you know. Our real purpose is about developing people.

It is an honor to open in New York City and to have the opportunity to serve and share our family's version of American Chinese food and hospitality. New York City deeply influenced my passion for food and service, and it feels good to be back.
