Based on the my most recent post and this one, it may seem like I go out to lunch a lot, but I am really just backed up on blogging! My co-worker and I have birthdays only days apart, so we jointly thought it would be a great idea to celebrate with an outing to
Blue Dragon - working with a bunch of foodies has its perks. Ever since Ming Tsai opened his second restaurant in Boston, I could not wait to go. Located in the Seaport District the space is a bit industrial with an Asian decor flair.

Since we were there on a Tuesday for lunch, there was no wait (lucky us!). Having read more than a few things on Blue Dragon before heading over, including the inclusion on the
Eater Boston Burger List, I could not resist the burger. The burger comes with teriyaki onions, smoked gouda, tomato jam and house fries, and the onion ring topper didn't hurt! The burger was delicious - cooked a perfect medium rare with so many flavors in each bite. I thought maybe it would be too much, but they really just worked together perfectly! Be advised - the burger is only available for lunch.

As a table, we ordered some appetizers to share, including the Teriyaki Salmon with Cha Soba Noodle Salad with Wasabi Vinaigrette; the Thai Beef Salad with Green Papaya, Grapefruit and Lime Vinaigrette; and the fried rice.

All three of these dishes were unbelievable. The fried rice is what I wish all delivery fried rices would taste like - seriously delicious. The two salads would make for great main dishes. If you have not been to Blue Dragon I would highly recommend a trip to Sea Port.
oh man, i never would've thought to order the burger! need to get there :)

ReplyDeleteAhhh we so want to try this place! Yum!
ReplyDeleteI have only had cocktails there so far, but all of the food looked SO good!
ReplyDeleteMy office is maybe 3 minutes away from Blue Dragon so we often go there for brunch - I do love the burger but my favorite is the fish and chips!
ReplyDeleteHey In and Around Town,
