At P.F. Chang’s, guests are surrounded by a unique, modern environment combining influences of Asian and American cultures. And now, the Goodness of Fall is fresh for the tasting at P.F. Chang’s with their new Fall Seasonal Menu.
The one menu item that really caught my eye was the Vietnamese Noodles with Steak and Shrimp! I am a shrimp girl, so I would love to try this one out real soon. The Citrus Mustard Prawns also look yummy! And of course I would want to try the Pumpking Dessert Wantons, or the Apple Dessert Wontons!
