THE GET DOWN
EVERY neighborhood needs a place like Fat Dragon!
I still have yet to understand why Americans crave Chinese food. I mean, until now, it all tasted the same. Admittedly, Fat Dragon had me at the hello.They even pride themselves on breathing new life into the old classics, and I can see why.
Mushroom fries? Whaaa? The tastiest little things I have ever had. Orange chicken where you can taste and see the orange? Muy delicioso!
Have a tot with a picky palette? No problem! Fat Dragon will whip ya up steamy hot plain, yet delicious noodles that even YOU will have a hard time keeping your fork out of. And as if this wasn’t enough, ask to have your meal paired with a special tea! The unique flavors and colors are simply beautiful.
The cool bistro vibe at Fat Dragon is someplace you’ll want to dine at often. It’s loud and casual. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. The communal seating makes Fat Dragon perfect for a large gathering, or a perfect date night spot with your little one.
If you’re lucky enough, they might even let you makes your own fortune cookie.

For those with little
runners & screamers:
Easily forgiven:
Here, you can forget the fact that it’s your rambunctious child that’s screaming and STILL enjoy most of your meal.
Not promoted, but you should take the chance:
If your toddler is at the stage when an iPad or some other colorful distraction can be used for an un-interrupted 20 minutes, then go for it.
Uh-uh, NO WAY, don’t even think about it!:
I don’t care how cute your toddler is. Pop your head in… turn around… walk away. PERIOD.
No contained area:
A place you cannot leave your toddler alone, not even for a second.
Enclosed, but space is tight:
If YOU can’t fit between the tables then you know you couldn’t catch your toddler if they tried – this isn’t Norm’s.
