I loved the decor at Dragon’s Place – so elegant, and it really sets the stage for a lovely Asian meal!
From a central dining hall, to private sunken tatami-style room,
complete with window onto the rest of the restaurant,
and exquisitely set for your convenience and privacy while engaging in a uniquely Asian dining experience,
you are assured a memorable seating arrangement – one that you are sure to tell your friends, and directly share on social media!
And then there’s the Teppanyaki private table!
There the restaurant provides live cooking – even lively cooking! – especially and exclusively for you and your guests!
Speaking of cooking, and with all due appreciation for the impressive decor, shall we eat?
Our Chef was the gorgeous Ms Krongsapp Manitasawakul from northern Thailand, and so we feasted on Thai specifically!
Above was the steamed sea bass, with lemon, garlic, chili, and coriander – so simple yet so tasty!
And below was the famous Tom Yam Kung:
But Dragon’s Place doesn’t feature only SouthEast Asian dishes, and the menu contains selections from as far south as Indonesia, all the way up north to Japan!
The tempura prawns were expertly prepared: light and crunchy, and firm on the tooth in the center – excellent.
Sushi of all kinds, shapes, and sizes are available – even served by the meter!
The attention to detail was one of Dragon’s Place’s fortes!
And again the deep-fried offering was fabulous – here are the calamari rings.
Overall, a very engaging meal, covering all the bases and making good use of a variety of ingredients and dishes representing the Far East – this restaurant has the potential to put Bahi Ajman Palace Hotel on the culinary map of the Emirates.
And I saved the best for last!
A very creative interpretation of a Panna Cotta, with a surprising emphasis on the use of candied ginger: one of the best desserts I’ve had this year!
Overall, Dragon’s Place is a delightful destination for a special meal, and I felt the combination of the decor and delicious dishes make it well worth the drive out to Ajman – unless of course you already live close by, in which case you would probably become a regular visitor!
