Laisa Chan owner. of Xpress Orient serving a delicious meal,

For those people looking for an inex-
pensive, and delicious lunch or dinner
aleerrative, try the new Xpress Orient
restaurant. They are located just two
doors north of Jack Lonsdale’s public
house, at 1433 Lonsdale. | guess you
could say that the Xpress Orient is a
criss between a traditional Chinese
Restaurant and a Fast Food restaurant.

Xpress Orient is the brainchild of
Leisa and Anthony Chan who believe

ee¥gem there is a market for fast, healehy,
¥ ~-iitious Chinese food served in clean

modern settings. Together with
theft partner who has over thirty
ifs culinary experience they have
URPloped a menu that would tickle

the saste buds of most people: from
hot and spicy dishes from the Far East
to traditional favorites such as sweet

travelling to the Far East to sample
dishes from the Orient. The careful
observer will notice some really inter.
esting design features. Fur example, at
your fee as you walk in the door is a
rough map of Lulu Island and what
looks to be a long runway. The leg of
the firse counter on your left is sup-
ported by a wheel, like che front wheel
of a plane. The menu boards behind
and above the customer service
counter will clearly remind you of
flight arrival and departure monitors at
the alrpert.

The entre restaurant from the
dining area t the kitchen is designed
so that it can be kept spodess. The

brand new kitchen is highly visible

from the outside. Paerons can easily
observe how the cooking is done in a

-and sour pork To achieve their objec- - ~-- -

y.’ tive, of reasonable: prices, consistent i
“high quality, and fast service they have’

limited their menu items to 25 as
opposed ta over 50 dishes found in a
traditional Chinese restaurant. New
dishes are introduced as specials at
regular intervals, The result is luach for
under $5 and dinner combinations
under $6. High turnover of food sup-
plies means only the freshest ingredi-
ents are used and no MSG is required
to enhance flavor, All dishes are pre-
pared fresh daily, on the premises,
The decor of the restaurant is
decidedly modern. The theme of the
design is to give patrons the feeling of

>

clean and organized environment. The
Most up-to-date exhaust system is

employed to enaure that cooking -

odors will not escape the partially
open kitchen. As a result the only
odors you will spl are the delicious
odors of the food in front of you.
Generally Chinese Food is healthy
and low in fat. Chinese dishes contain
only small amouges of ean well
trimmed meat, and a high proportion
of vegetables and starches to meats.

Oil is used for cooking. These are con-
sidered the “Healthy” oils because
they contain primarily moncunsaturat-

cooked quickly to preserve the nutri-
tious benefits of the ingredients.

.__ All things considered fot will find
the Xpress Orient a fast delicious and
healthy choice.

“HE you ara a smoker you will be

” happy to know chat a completely sep-

arate area will allow you tha exact

part of the restaurant.

there are many vegetarian alternatives
available for those who choose them.

“Take Out" you will definitely enjoy
the Xpress Orient experience.
