  • We just ordered delivery from Dragon Pearl, our first time eating from there. The results were mixed. See below. (One note: The menu we had was dated June 2011, and yet when we ordered two years later, the prices were the same. Still expensive in my eyes, but yeah, it's good when prices stay steady.) Vegetable Spring Rolls ($1.25 each) -- very tasty, well seasoned, very well filled. They didn't fall apart like some places, and weren't too greasy. Shrimp Spring Rolls ($1.75 each) -- quite tasty, very flavourful. Good chunks of shrimp -- they weren't stingy on that. Lobster Spring Rolls ($5.55 for 2 pieces) -- we were not that impressed. Would not get again. Steamed rice ($1.35 each) -- it was steamed rice. What more is there to say? Uhhh... the portion was good? General Tao Chicken ($8.75) -- very tasty. Some of the best GTC we've had. Large, well divided chunks of white meat chicken in a nice sauce. Black Pepper Beef ($9.25) -- unlike the chicken dish above, this was some beef and a lot of mixed vegetables. Not as much meat, but pretty good taste. Nothing mind blowing, and not spicy despite having a "spicy" symbol. For the price and the fact you don't get THAT much beef, would not get again. Chicken and Shrimp Pad Thai ($11.75) -- wow that was disappointing. Not just was it the most expensive thing we ordered, but it was so bland. The chicken AND the shrimp lacked in taste, and the pad thai noodles were quite ordinary. It was a large quantity, but none of us wanted much of it. What else to note? - There were no errors with our order - No delivery charge - It took like 55 minutes, which seems long considering they are under 3km away, but it still fell within the time quoted of 45-60 minutes. The price is competitive with similar places, but is still too expensive (in my opinion), unless you order their pre-selected combo plates. With tax/tip, it came to $56, and it was only for 3 people -- there's enough leftovers for 1 more full plate, so it works out to $14 per person. Overall, I found it a mixed bag -- some really good dishes, some that didn't set themselves apart from other places, and some that were disappointing. Not sure if we'll be back, because some other places have dishes we have been WOWED by, and nothing did that here.
