I've been searching for Chinese food around where we live. From one of those coupon books I got in the mail, I found Golden Dragon Chinese Food. It's a small eatery that caters mostly for takeout. While I was waiting for the food, I had a little chat with the owner. She came from China, and moved down to south Orange County to open this Chinese restaurant about 9 years ago. She told me that most of their dishes are catered for American people. Since majority of the customers here are Americans, she had to adjust the dishes to have a sweeter flavor for American palates. She said that even for herself, she has to go up to Irvine area for authentic Chinese food. I like her, and really appreciate her honesty about their food.
House Special Beef ($4.95)
Their lunch special has really good price. Each order was enough for me to have for 2 meals. I like their eggroll. House Special Beef had a somewhat sweet brown sauce. The beef was good. I like how it had a lot of vegetables in it.
Szechuan Roast Pork ($4.95)
Szechuan Roast Pork was made with Chashu, Chinese style BBQ pork. It was slightly spicy, and very good with rice. It also had lots of vegetable, and I like that.
Golden Dragon is one of those quick Americanized takeout Chinese restaurant. The food is pretty good and tastes fresh. Everything is made to order. The price is very reasonable and close to my house. It's still not the authentic Chinese food restaurant I am looking for. But if I feel like Chinese food and don't want to go too far, I'll still come back here.
