Panda Express Coming to Belmont

Chinese fast food chain will take over former A.G. Ferrari Foods site.

Belmont diners will soon have to trade in their paninis for potstickers.

Chinese restaurant chain Panda Express is taking over the site at Emmett Avenue and El Camino Real formerly occupied by A.G. Ferrari Foods, which filed for bankruptcy and closed up its shop earlier this year.

Of the 13 A.G. Ferrari stores, three remain open while the East Bay-based company reorganizes its finances.
