In 1974 Margaret Kuo opened Peking - Located in all places a mall (the Granite Run Mall in Media PA.). While many people openly questioned whether the area was ready for an authentic Chinese Restaurant, Margaret believed once the people of Delaware County sampled authentic Mandarin and Schezuan cooking they would come back on a repeated basis.

One of the first diners was Elaine Tate - the venerable food critic of the Philadelphia Inquirer. As it turns out, Tate, by shear serendipity walked into Peking to sample the first nouveau Chinese cuisine in the entire Delaware Valley. Thanks to her review, and Margaret's food, Peking started to gain a reputation as a "hot spot." That reputation continued to grow when Philadelphia Magazine awarded Peking "Best Asian Restaurant" in 1978.

After 10 years of devoted service, Margaret recognized the need to make her cuisine available to a greater audience, and hence opened Mandarin in Malvern. The next five years bought more awards and more happy diners, and by now most people who were interested in fine Chinese food knew about Peking and Mandarin.

In 1992, Margaret opened a second Peking, the location being in the actual town of Media. As it turns out Peking was at the forefront of Media's restaurant renaissance. Five years later Margaret saw an opportunity to provide the area with another unique dinning experience, thus out of Margaret's longstanding appreciation and understanding of Japanese cuisine Tokyo was born. Tokyo allows its diners to taste authentic Japanese dishes, never before served in this area. Its unique atmosphere and kaishike quality cosine have resulted in being voted different "Best of" awards including; "Best Sushi Bar," and "Best Asian Restaurant."
