New King Dragon Massapequa

I know I’m going to regret this. Nothing good comes from giving a restaurant a rave review, and, of course, the next time I order, I will be told that I have hours to wait to get my order because they’re too busy, but…I just can’t help it. It’s that phenomenal. I had almost given up ever having the kind of amazing Chinese food I had when I was a kid. You all know. Sunday night with the parents. You meet your aunts, uncles and cousins at the local chop suey place, and everything was so good, you’re licking your fingers in the car the whole way back to Canarsie. After jumping from one bland tasteless Chinese take-out to another, all the same dull, half burned spare ribs, soggy eggroll filled with cabbage, over salted wonton soup where you need a miners pick to find the meat in the dumpling, it happened. Now, I need to preface this review with the fact that we’ve only had delivery, never eaten in, but what we’ve had…omg! The Mmm factor is so high, that we actually moan and groan as we eat. I mean, we sat down, turned on Jeopardy, and were ready for a boring meal from just another dive, when it happened!! “Paul? Did you taste the spare rib? Paul!!” “Shush…I think I died and went to heaven!” “How’s the soup?” “I think they made a mistake. This wonton is full of meat!” “You won’t believe this!! The eggroll crunches…it crunches! There’s no grease dripping out of it…there’s meat in it!! “Gimme that! You’re lyin….OMG!” Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus!! Everything was fresh, delicious and came…get this…sit down…ready?…came hot!! The place is on Hicksville road…we’re a good 15 minutes at least, away…and it was hot! We dove through our order!! C’mon!! Isn’t anything going to be bland?? Greasy? Tasteless? Again! OMG! Well, after you’ve read through my raving, I guess I have to tell you the name of this Utopia…you’ve been patient, deserving…but if I have to wait hours for my next order…the onus will be on you!! The food is beyond delicious! Everything from even the old standard, chicken chow mein, to new stuff, such as eggplant in garlic sauce, is outstanding…yes, I know, the name… New King Dragon…on Hicksville Road in Massapequa…and as Ray Malland said in the Lost Weekend…I know I’m going to hate myself in the morning. Enjoy!! I know you will.

Sooo good!! Best Chinese place around!!!
