Traditional Chinese cafes endure as
a constant throughout Prairies by Peter Dalla-Vicenza
"COOKIN': Bill and Sue-On Hillman have taken over a
Prairies institution, the small-town Chinese restaurant.
Soo's has been operating since 1970,
and Sue-On's mother, Yook Hai, now 91 years old,
still helps out occasionally."

before taking the stage at the Centennial Auditorium
at the start of the 18th annual Brandon Jazz Festival.
Hillman was playing his trombone as part of the
Brandon University Jazz Ensemble."

Tech Talk: A Weekly Computer Column by Ben Judson
Brandon Sun ~ Wednesday, June 14, 2000
SHOULD YOUR BUSINESS BE ONLINE?
Bill and Sue-On Hillman sent an e-mail last week
expressing their opinion on fan sites due in part to
their involvement with an Edgar Rice Burroughs site that they maintain http://home.westman.wave.ca/~hillmans/intromq1.html
What I was particularly impressed about with their site is that
the Hillmans, who own Soo's Restaurant in Brandon,
have their buffet menu online and it appears to updated weekly.
Also included is the take-out menu and the dining room menu.
What an excellent way for a Brandon business to grab technology and
turn it into an inexpensive advantage.
I've bookmarked the buffet page
( http://www.hillmanweb.com/soos/menubuff.html ),
and rest assured I'll be checking out the menu next time
my stomach lets me know it wants buffet.
