New concept: Tri-branded restaurant coming New Year's Day

Seafood/Mexican/Pizza from one location, at former Yuli's on Campbellsville Road, triangulates entrepreneur's Columbia/Adair County restaurants, with a new emphasis on delivery and catering, and a new infusion of capital and creative ideas for Columbia, KY

By Ed Waggener

Mr. Peter Cheng announces that on January 1, 2011, Columbia/Adair County will be seeing a whole new concept in the Columbia/Adair County restaurant scene.




He will be re-opening the large restaurant at 1764 Campbellsville Road, Columbia, KY, as a seafood/traditional Mexican/pizza outlet.

The Restaurant is to be called The Golden Bay, with seafood the lead item. A traditional Mexican restaurant, with a menu similar to other Mexican Restaurants in the area, will continue to be offered. And pizza will be added, along with delivery service.

Cheng's group already operates Tray's Garden Chinese, and recently re-opened the Circle R, adding fine dining -CIMA dinners and music - to it's weekend offerings, with a menu featuring Main Lobster, China Duck, Kentucky Steak, Alaskan Salmon, and Roma Chicken Marsala.

Golden Bay will be an expansion of his idea to serve an increasingly cosmopolitan market.

Mr. Cheng said that with the over 500 international students, total, between Lindsey Wilson College and Campbellsville University, he wanted to capitalize on the opportunity by covering a more eclectic food market.He's hoping to also have a greater presence in the Downtown Columbia scene, either with a restaurant or by serving through the unique catering opportunities in the area.

"Most of all," he said, "I have a dream that Columbia will be totally ideal fro college students. I want Columbia to be even more of a place that any parent would choose as a temporary home for their children. I want to see every vacant building open and busy," and added, "if anyone has a building or an idea for a business," he said, "I want to talk to them - to help them realize what an opportunity there is here, or to put a business in their location myself."

He can be reached, often, at Tray's Garden, 960 Jamestown Street, Columbia, KY or at the Circle R Restaurant, 712 Russell Road, Columbia, KY.

Mr. Peter Cheng: Sharing a dream for Columbia



2011-12-04 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener.
Peter Cheng whose Tray's Garden Chinese restaurant is one of Columbia/Adair County's oldest, will open his third Columbia/Adair County restaurant on New Year's Day. It's part of a dream he has for Columbia, and part of his own, one-man Board of Trade effort to make a meaningful contribution to life in Columbia. Basically, he wants to make a great college town an ideal college town, a place where, on first sight, parents of prospective Lindsey Wilson College students will feel totally comfortable leaving their children in the community's care. He thinks that dream starts one property at a time, transforming vacant business locations into economic and cultural contributors. -EW
