Hello guys and gal!
Ok the background of the story is that my fiancée is on the verge of opening her own Chinese buffet restaurant. She has the found a good location and placed an offer which is likely to be accepted as it was for the asking price, she has the finance in place (Her family has the money so she doesn't need to borrow any) and business plan and costings all setup and all ready to go. Her Brother, Dad and Uncle are getting involved in running the place and all have 10+ each working in and around the catering industry.
She about 2.5 months away from opening doors and her thoughts have turned to what to name the restaurant, which she has asked me for help.
Initially i thought of the usual suspects:
China Kitchen
Imperial Palace (Too Serious i think?)
Panda Palace (Too silly? Maybe people like the word-play?)
The Golden Wok (Seems popular with people in my office)
Imperial Kitchen
The Legendary Wok
China Express
New China House
Chopstick Empire (Also seems popular and a bit more modern!)
Then the next name just popped into my head last night, not just the name but the logo as well. So i did a quick rough pass through last night before going to bed but to be honest it had really mixed reactions with the people i have shown it so far. Some thinks it's good while others thought it was very meh and wanted a more traditional Chinese name like the ones in the list, so i will now submit it to the court of popular opinion and see what you guys think:

And here is the black version that would go on Staff uniforms

All i'm asking is for you brutal honest opinion, thoughts or general ramblings. Tell me if you prefer a name from the list. Or if you have an idea on how to improve the name or logo i am all open to suggestions. Even Photoshop it to make improvements if you want.
Anyone that i consider makes a great contribution, i will ask you to IM me your name and address and i'll make sure you eat for free in our new eatery
Thanks in advance guys, i really hope you lot can help!
