    Restaurant info

    Chef Tammy Wong has been sharing her love of innovative Chinese cuisine for over thirty years. The secret to her style is simple, “ Fresh greens, garlic and onions stir-fried over a searing flame – those are the basic elements of what I do.” Learning to create amazing food and sharing her passion with all who come to Rainbow has been Tammy’s lifelong purpose. Tammy loves the Chinese proverb,” The chef teaches you how to eat, not how to prepare the meal.”
