Wok On Pan-Asian Cuisine Coming To CBU
Riverside, Calif. (Aug 26, 2015) -- California Baptist University continues to increase
its dining options with the addition of WOK ON, a Pan-Asian inspired cuisine, that
will be featured this fall at Brisco's Café.
"We want to give our students a diversity of food choices and WOK ON will fill a missing
piece and provide a new cuisine option to our campus community," said Kent Dacus,
CBU vice president for enrollment and student affairs. WOK ON is the brainchild of Food Network's celebrity chef Jet Tila. He has partnered
with CBU and Provider Contract Food Service to create the Pan-Asian concept.
The new dining concept is scheduled to open on Aug. 31, with a grand opening celebration
scheduled on Sept. 8 featuring an appearance from Tila.
Dining options will include a modern twist to Thai, Cantonese and Chinese wok-style
or stir-fried cooking. Late-night items will include Asian fusion entrees such as
Asian Tacos or Japanese and Latin "Dawgs" (hotdogs).
Kipp Dougherty, director of Provider Contract Food Service, said she is excited about
the new addition to CBU's campus dining. "Get your chopsticks ready to dive into some
great Asian-inspired cuisine," she exclaimed.
Brisco's is located on the northeast side of campus in the Village at CBU. In addition
to WOK ON, Brisco's Café is open for lunch and dinner with cooked-to-order items such
as subs, wraps and burgers as well as a selection of "Grab and Go" options.
