Description

Yang’s Braised Chicken Rice, the wildly popular Chinese brand with a signature menu item, celebrated the grand openings of its new locations in Rowland Heights and San Gabriel on Saturday, Oct. 26. The Rowland Heights restaurant, which is the largest Yang’s Braised Chicken Rice in the world, is situated at 1355 Nogales St., and the San Gabriel location at 140 W. Valley Blvd. #101. Both locations build on the brand’s successful U.S. expansion as well as its global popularity. “It’s an exciting time for us as we take our beloved concept to Los Angeles County,” said CEO of the Yang’s Braised Chicken Rice U.S. group Xinyu Zhang. “Our Huang Men braised chicken, which is a staple of the well-known Shangdong-style, Lu Cai cuisine, is steeped in tradition. The authenticity of our preparation and ingredients create an experience for our guests that is unlike any other.” In addition to the new locations in Rowland Heights and San Gabriel, the brand will be opening locations throughout Southern California in Anaheim, Buena Park, Fountain Valley and Ontario by the end of 2019. The brand currently has locations in Tustin, Lake Forest, Aliso Viejo and, most recently, Santa Ana. “We’re proud to call Southern California our home in the United States. The people here have been so receptive and loving of our signature menu item,” said Zhang. “We look forward to expanding our presence even more throughout Los Angeles and Orange counties.” The celebrated restaurant’s single menu item got its start when founder Xiao Lu, Yang’s grandmother passed down the secret recipe for the sauce. With years of culinary training under his belt, Yang began lovingly adapting the sauce of the braised chicken recipe and added rice before launching it at his fast casual restaurants in 2011. Yang’s Braised Chicken Rice is dedicated to ensuring the quality of its signature dish, starting with the consistent flavor of the sauce and simplifying the dining experience for customers. Current and future U.S. Yang’s locations, which offer a simplified restaurant operating model, feature the same signature one-item menu in three varieties of spice level: regular, authentic and spicy. About Yang’s Braised Chicken Rice Founded by Xiao Lu, Yang, Yang’s Braised Chicken Rice opened its first restaurant in Ji Nan, Shandong Province in 2011 and has since franchised more than 6,000 locations across China, Australia, Japan and Singapore, with its first U.S. location opening in Tustin, California, in 2017. The brand’s innovative single-item menu is rooted in tradition and has developed a loyal international fan base. With a focus on quality through simplicity, Yang’s is committed to the extraordinary flavor of its ingredients, starting with the signature, proprietary sauce used at all locations. Its recent U.S. expansion is poised to share braised chicken rice with the world through targeted growth efforts to begin in California, New York, Chicago and Hawaii.
