Dragonfly Thai

"Dragon on the Fly" says their logo: A place to eat in or take out.

DRAGONFLY THAI -- This restaurant offers delicious iced coffees and teas, Pad Thai and other noodles with choice of meat, yellow, green or red curries and BBQ pork or chicken.

In short, it has all of the dishes that have made Thai food so trendy for the last 20 years. There are also wok-fried favorites like Kung Pao or orange chicken. While much of the restuarant's business is takeout, Dragonfly Thai has several tables, including one big one for families. Outside seating is available too, but be warned: there's no bathroom. So like your mom always said, go before you leave the house and be sure to wash your hands!

Most cities in Southern California boast several Thai restaurants, but since when has the Peninsula followed trends? Maybe that's why our one Thai cafe is always busy.
