Garden
Dressing
By Tony Wu's Seafood and Steak Café
The inception of
the Tony Wu Seafood & Steak Cafe in 1987 brought
about the birth of the Huei family's special Garden
Dressing. This all-natural, soy-based vinaigrette has
pleasantly captivated those fortunate enough to reserve
a table at the elegant Delray Beach Restaurant for the
past 15 years. Now, you too can enjoy the splendor of
this healthy and delicious dressing in the comfort and
convenience of your own home.
Founders and brothers, Allen
and Richard Huei describe some of their customers' initial
reactions after enjoying the unique flavor of their
handcrafted masterpiece and reveal the origin of their
slogan, "To Taste It Is To Love It":
"Over one of our very first
dinners ever served at the restaurant, an ecstatic patron
exclaimed exuberantly, as if drunken by the flavors
that he had consumed, "To taste it is to love it,"
referring to the refreshing dressing that garnished
the salad accompanying his meal."
"First-time customers were
asking if they could take extra home to enjoy again,
and at first, we were ecstatic and obliged to offer
it to them. Eventually, it was as if everyone who came
into the restaurant asked of the dressing after dining.
At a point we were unable to cover the dual demand for
the sauce without incurring the added expense of producing
the extra batches, and with so many requests, that expense
was growing too large too fast."
"Some customers asked if
we had ever thought about bottling it, and over a course
of years, our contemplation over whether or not to sell
the dressing exclusively was fueled by such pressure
from our guests and the increasingly apparent existence
of an exclusive market for the dressing that consists
of those who enjoy fine foods and the ease of accessibility
and preparation that accompany them."
The unique flavor, extracted
from a bouquet of all natural ingredients, including
imported soy and a smooth blend of spices, juices and
vinegar, rivets taste buds and compliments a variety
of dishes including not only salads and other vegetable
plates, but also rice, pasta, and just about anything
else that can be dipped, doused, basted, marinated,
or simply complimented by that special little something
that embodies the dressings' dreamy taste.
Garden Dressing by Tony Wu's
Seafood and Steak Cafe also offers a healthy, tasteful
alternative for stir-fry. And once you've tasted it,
you can be different without daring, and add it to the
list of ingredients for any recipes you wish to enhance
with the zest of Garden Dressing by Tony Wu's Seafood
and Steak Café.
