And now to announce the contest entrant who wins the free entree. Seven entrants correctly guessed the dish is made by 168 Chinese restaurant, so we did a random drawing to determine the winner: Selena Delaurentis-Giannakaris. 

Selena, please contact Kent or Rosana Tse at 168 Chinese Restaurant to redeem your free entree.
