Get ready to walk to Wok Box

Before the end of the year, Campbell Riverites will have another dining choice for lunch and dinner, this time with a decidedly Asian flavour. Carla Campbell is bringing the taste of Calgary-based franchise Wok Box to Mariner Square, beside Save-On Foods.

“It’s exciting to be part of a Canadian company,” said Carla. She’s heading off soon for three weeks training in the Lower Mainland although managing a food service operation isn’t new. Carla and her husband Ed currently live in Port McNeill, where they operate a Subway franchise. They will relocate to Campbell River when Wok Box opens.

The City of Campbell River has been “awesome”  in making the process of applying for the various permits as smooth as possible, Carla commented.

Inititally 14 people will be hired. Hours will be 10am to 10pm, seven days a week. The decor will include cedar booths. 

Stay tuned for details on opening day and in the meantime, check out Wok Box’s website at www.wokbox.ca for their stir-fry menus that include a variety of sauce and meat choices. Yum yum!
