Golden Dragon – Flagstaff, Arizona

Cultural artifact from those that came before us.

 

There was a good amount of snow in the mountains.  Not enough for me to go sledding but I did enjoy grabbing handfuls of the fluffy and icy snow and made some snowballs.  I thoroughly enjoyed our white Christmas.
After our snow day Maggie’s son led us to Golden Dragon.  I loved Golden Dragon in Los Angeles so I looked forward to trying it in Flagstaff.

This Golden Dragon is different in that they don’t have dim sum in carts and it’s not located in a Chinatown.
It is pretty nice inside and you can watch the cooks cook.
Nice looking kitchen.
Fried won ton strips were crunchy and had a delicious fried flavor.

Wor Won Ton soup was a mix of chicken, shrimp, and pork won tons.

Won tons were very small and I would have liked a higher pork to won ton ratio as the strongest flavor was from the won ton wrapper.  Chicken and shrimp were both tender and had nice flavors.

House special pan fried noodles had a delicious savory brown sauce and thin crunchy egg noodles.  I loved the mix of flavors from the chicken, shrimp, and beef.  Meats were all tender and full of flavor.  This is one of the best pan fried noodles I’ve had in a while.
After lunch I admired the golden dragons at the entrance.  Loved the details in the artwork.  I’ll have to visit again next time I’m in Flagstaff.
Cool trees in the parking lot.

  1. Looking forward to visiting this restaurant again! Nice, tasty lunch with wonderful company!

    1. It will be cool to eat there again!

  2. Their specials menu board is expensive. I love the savory brown sauce with the noodles. Do you have a recipe for that?

    1. $15 for a ribeye steak sounds like a good deal. I usually pay $32 for a ribeye steak at Black Angus. I never tried making the savory brown sauce. I’m thinking they would keep that secret…
