P.F. CHANG'S® TEAMS UP WITH HARRY SHUM JR. TO LIGHT UP THE HOLIDAYS WITH VIBRANT FLAVORS & FESTIVE MOMENTS

Inspired by Japan's winter illuminations, the "Bright Nights. Festive Flavors." campaign arrives with King Crab Gyoza, Fire-Roasted Crispy Duck, a three-course holiday meal and illuminated restaurants in select cities

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Nov. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Award-winning actor Harry Shum Jr. is bringing his irresistible positivity to the holiday table as the star of P.F. Chang's latest campaign, "Bright Nights. Festive Flavors." Inspired by Japan's famous winter illuminations, the campaign celebrates the people who brighten our lives and the simple joy of sharing a meal with them. It arrives alongside a new seasonal menu, a special three-course holiday meal and catering options for holiday gatherings, with P.F. Chang's also welcoming guests nationwide on Christmas Day for the first time.

Capturing the warmth of a family dinner, the campaign is a natural fit for Shum, who grew up with parents who owned a Chinese restaurant, and brings a personal connection to the idea that the best moments of the season happen around the table.

"Some of my favorite memories are from my parents' restaurant, watching the dining room fill up with families and friends celebrating together – that energy never leaves you," said Shum. "So when P.F. Chang's asked me to be part of their holiday campaign, it brought back those memories. The holidays are all about the people who light up your life, and there's no better way to celebrate them than over a table full of incredible food."

The holiday spirit carries through to the seasonal menu, arriving at restaurants nationwide beginning today, November 4, 2026 through January 26, 2027, with wok-fired favorites, fire-roasted dishes, and a dessert finished with a flash of flame. New additions include:

• King Crab Gyoza: King crab dumplings with garlic, yuzu ponzu, lemon, scallion and soy sauce, served with a dashi miso butter sauce.
• Dashi Risotto with Seared Hokkaido Scallops: Dashi risotto topped with seared Hokkaido scallops, black garlic aioli, mushrooms and parmesan, finished with a truffle oil drizzle and dancing bonito flakes.
• Fire-Roasted Crispy Duck: Fire-roasted duck served with warm roti, hoisin sauce and julienned vegetables.
• Honey Sesame Crème Brûlée: Toasted white sesame and vanilla bean custard topped with a caramelized sugar crust, torched tableside.
• Fortune & Fire Cocktail: WhistlePig PiggyBack 6-Year Bourbon, with Disaronno, pomegranate, lemon, and Fever-Tree ginger beer.

Guests can also raise a glass with the returning Frosted Cranberry Cosmo or the new Belle Glos "Las Alturas" Pinot Noir, a natural pairing for the Fire-Roasted Crispy Duck. Fan favorites from the fall menu, including Duck Wings, Wagyu Egg Rolls and Duck Fried Rice, will stay on the menu through the holiday season. All new food items are available for dine-in, online ordering and third-party delivery, with the exception of the Honey Sesame Crème Brûlée, which is available for dine-in only.

"A great meal gives people a reason to slow down and spend time together, especially during the holidays," said Jim Mazany, Chief Executive Officer of P.F. Chang's. "We've put a lot of thought into making this menu feel special for all types of celebrations, from the King Crab Gyoza to the Honey Sesame Crème Brûlée torched tableside. And opening nationwide on Christmas Day for the first time gives us another opportunity to welcome families and friends around our tables."

On Christmas Day, P.F. Chang's restaurants nationwide will be open from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. for dine-in, takeout and third-party delivery. Restaurants will operate regular hours on Christmas Eve, giving guests more ways to celebrate throughout the holiday season.

Available November 4, 2026, through January 26, 2027, the three-course holiday meal starts at $30 per person.  The meal begins with a choice of Hot & Sour Soup, Egg Drop Soup or House Salad, followed by an entrée of Chang's Spicy Chicken, Miso Glazed Salmon, Crispy Honey Shrimp, Mongolian Beef, Ma Po Tofu or Duck Fried Rice. Guests can upgrade to a premium entrée, including the Dashi Risotto with Hokkaido Scallops, NY Prime Strip Steak Tataki or Roasted Duck with Cherry Chutney, and finish with an individual dessert of Key Lime Pie, Red Velvet Cake or Chocolate Peanut Butter Cream Pie.

For gatherings at home or the office, P.F. Chang's new Fire-Roasted Crispy Duck Catering Package feeds four to six guests and starts at $195. The package includes the Fire-Roasted Crispy Duck alongside Chicken Fried Rice, Chili Garlic Green Beans, and Crab Wontons.

Bringing the campaign's inspiration to life, P.F. Chang's will transform select restaurants with holiday light installations inspired by Japan's winter illuminations. Each location will be draped in a warm, festive glow throughout the season, creating a picture-perfect backdrop for holiday dinners and photos with the people who make the year brighter.
