P.F. Chang’s is one of our favorite restaurants to visit on date night. The warm atmosphere, great food, and friendly waitstaff always make for any enjoyable visit. I usually order the same thing every time we go — Lettuce Wraps, Sesame Chicken with brown rice, and a glass of wine — but I am excited to try some items from their new Winter Seasonal Menu.the next we go.
This year, P.F. Chang’s is celebrating Chinese New Year with a variety of unique dishes featuring traditional ingredients symbolizing good luck and prosperity. At P.F. Chang’s guests are surrounded by a unique, modern environment combining influences of Asian and American cultures evident from the décor through the menu. The new menu also commemorates the year of the horse – a symbol synonymous with P.F. Chang’s. Just in time for the Chinese New Year introducing its latest seasonal menu at locations nationwide.
