I am seriously considering opening a Panda Express style restaurant way south of the Rio Grande.
Any Chinese food restaurant experts out there?
I particularly want to know how Panda Express makes its Orange Chicken so consistently soft and tender.
If I get Orange Chicken at a mom-and-pop restaurant, the Orange Chicken is too chewy and slimy...even though they are using the dark meat which is supposed to be more tender.
I sure that it is pre-fried before it gets to Panda Express.
I chatted online with a chef and he said they probably use a tenderizer.
Any advice and insights into the Chinese restaurant business are greatly appreciated.
