The sorta-fast-food concept that is Pei Wei, the quick-serve version of popular PF Chang’s, is a new favorite for rushed weeknight dinners or anytime you’ve got the kids in tow. Order at the counter—we’ll take the chicken lettuce wraps and toothsome orange shrimp—and after it’s wok-tossed, they’ll bring the food to you.
