Bing Choy and his family came to Canada from the Quangdong Province of southern mainland China. Trained as a baker and understanding the food industry, it was only natural that he would begin his Canadian career in the restaurant business.
Settling in the prairie town of Stony Plain, he started a Western-Chinese restaurant in the Stony Plain Hotel on picturesque Main Street in 1970. The family run business was later passed on to his son Fon and now has reached its third generation with Bing's grandson, William.
Although the restaurant has seen some changes in decor, many kitchen improvements and an increase in menu selections, it has remained true to the original recipes. Using fresh ingredients, most items are still prepared by hand using the traditional methods. Spring rolls, wontons, egg rolls, soup, gravy and ginger beef are just a few of the many items still being created completely on location. The restaurant has always featured a great selection of sandwiches, hamburgers and homestyle breaded cutlets. Large hamburgers are seasoned and hand formed from freshly ground beef and dressed the way you want.
The licensed restaurant seats 50 people on the more casual café side and
seats another 60 people in the banquet room. The banquet room can be reserved
for private functions. The restaurant can also cater large events off premises
should you wish to book for weddings, parties or office events.
