White Spot Burgers Translate Well In Hong Kong

Vancouver Sun:

When Cynthia Suen first approached Warren Erhart about opening the quintessential West Coast Triple O’s in Hong Kong, he wasn’t keen. Even though the company was in expansion mode, Erhart wasn’t thinking of taking his premium burgers to Asia.
