i I a a of HOLIDAY INN DOWN TOWN For Reservations Call 886-3401 small cost oj By CECILY BROWNSTONE Associated Press Food Editor When your children are old enough to look after themselves and you have a yen to open a Chinese restaurant although you have never worked outside your own home before what do you do? If you are Sylvia Wu you wheedle $9,000 out of your husband and open a small Chinese eating place, seating 50, in California. You are also smart enough to hire people experienced in restaurant management. And if you are Sylvia Wu, one of the most beautiful women I have ever met, you make such a success of that first small restaurant that now you run the elegant big Madame Wu's Garden in Santa Monica. It seats 300. On some nights there you might catch a glimpse of Robert Redford or Cary Grant or one of your other heart's desires.

A while ago Sylvia Wu decided she wanted to write a cookbook. And when she gets an urge to do something she does it. This time she had an assist or two from a couple of the students in the recipe-testing classes she conducted at her restaurant. As a result, "Madame Wu's Art of Chinese Cooking," by Sylvia Wu, was published in hard cover by Charles and in soft cover by Bantam. When I asked Sylvia Wu what she was proudest of, she said, "My three children my daughter and two sons.

We're good friends." It figures. The dedication in her cookbook reads: "To my grandfather, from whom I received the precious gift of love." SYLVIA WU'S CHICKEN STICKS (Teem Suen Gai Yik) Have ready: 8 broiler wings Salt Separate the chicken wings into 3 pieces at the joints. Discard the wing tips. On the remaining 2 sections, with a sharp knife loosen the meat from the joint and pull down to the end of the bone and over the bottom of the bone to form a ball. It will look like an umbrella that is turned inside out, or a candied apple on a stick.
