07/09/2009
In less time than it takes to order Chinese and have it delivered, home cooks can now prepare their favorite Chinese dishes. The new Wanchai Ferry™ Frozen Entrées satisfy Chinese food cravings in the comfort of home kitchens.
The new line of frozen entrées, which go from skillet to plate in 14 minutes, contain all the ingredients needed to prepare a complete Chinese meal for two. Wanchai Ferry™ Frozen Entrées include battered chicken or shrimp, aromatic jasmine rice or classic lo mein noodles, large cuts of premium vegetables and flavorful sauces. Wanchai Ferry makes it possible to prepare delicious, restaurant-quality Chinese without the restaurant.
“Chinese food is the most frequently eaten ethic cuisine in restaurants, yet people avoid its seemingly complicated preparation,” said Liz Abate Mascolo, marketing manager for Wanchai Ferry. “Wanchai Ferry Frozen Entrées introduce a convenience factor to the market and offer the perfect meal solution for any two people wanting to bring delicious variety to their home dining experience.”
Wanchai Ferry Frozen Entrées cater to any Chinese craving: sweet, sour and even spicy. Entrées are available in five favorite restaurant flavors including Orange Chicken, Sweet & Sour Chicken, Spicy Garlic Chicken, Shrimp Lo Mein and Sweet & Spicy Shrimp. Home cooks can unlock the distinctive taste of Chinese favorites with specialty ingredients such as golden pineapple, baby cob corn or crunchy water chestnuts. It takes only 14 minutes to prepare crispy and delicious battered chicken that, until now, consumers have only been able to get at Chinese restaurants. Chinese food lovers can revel in the taste of premium ingredients and the knowledge that there is no added MSG, except that which naturally occurs in autolyzed yeast extract.
For an approximate retail price of $7.49 any of the five Wanchai Ferry Frozen Entrées can bring flavorful options to home-cooked dinners. Wanchai Ferry Frozen Entrées are available in all major grocers’ freezers.
