About Anchorage County, AK

A Chinese Restaurant in Anchorage, Alaska, called Mandarin Kitchen just opened their doors yesterday. I had lunch there and I had the Seafood Noodle Soup and fried wontons. It was so delicous. My son had the house fried rice and he finished most of his meal, which is a lot for a three year old boy.

If anyone is looking for good Chinese food in Anchorage, Alaska, I suggest trying Mandarin Kitchen. Mandarin Kitchen will also serve fresh dim-sum starting October 16th. Dim sum is not something that can be found in Anchorage right now. Once October 16th rolls around, I know where I'll be dining.

Mandarin Kitchen is a family owned and operated restaurant. The owner and chef, Achi, also known as Zong Qi, used to be the head chef at Peking Palace. He was very when he cooked there and he was greatly missed by his diners when he left. Now that he owns his own Chinese Restaurant, his customers can eat his Chinese Food any time, as he is open 7 days a week.

Mandarin Kitchen is open 7 days a week and they offer FREE DELIVERY. If real Chinese food is your craving, call Mandarin Kitchen today, 907-258-0488

Mandarin Kitchen is located at 3020 Minnesota Drive #6. If you don't feel like driving, call for Free Delivery 907-258-0488.

Why Open Houses can Make a Difference in the Sale of a Home

It may be true that less than 5% of homes on the market are actually sold at open houses. However, open houses give potential buyers the chance to view your home in a relaxed atmosphere. Open houses increase the number of people you may get through your house. More exposure is always good for a home that's on the market, right?

Even if a home is not sold through an open house and the agent turns a couple of open house visitors into Real Estate buyers, this still helps the sellers. Because the buyers are buying other listed homes, they are taking homes off the market, which means less competition for the seller. Less competition for the seller means that the seller has a higher likelihood of selling his/her home.
