| - Dragonfly, located in the Park Selwyn Shopping Center, is a slightly better version of a strip mall Chinese restaurant. This has been a lunchtime favorite of mine for many years, as they are consistently good and well-priced. My lunch on Wednesday of Sesame Chicken with fried rice and an egg roll with a sweet tea to drink was less than $9. The portions are large without being enormous. The Sesame Chicken is flash fried chicken in sauce and while most of it is good size chunks of white chicken, you get the odd piece stuck in there that is whatever the chicken version of gristle is (to be expected, no big). I have also had General's chicken, beef and broccoli and veggie lo mein - all very good.
The bowl of fried noodles served when we were seated on Wednesday, along with a cup of duck sauce and one of spicy mustard, appeared to have been taken out of the bottom of the bag, as it was mostly dust, but we didn't say anything, so I can't complain (and this was the first time that has happened - generally the pieces are whole and plentiful). The food was brought to us quickly and was hot. The fried rice is excellent (you can also get white or brown rice) and the lunch specials are served with either an egg roll, spring roll or vegetable roll. Dragonfly is consistently good, service is fast and friendly and the price and portions are right for lunch time.
