Year of the Monkey Celebrated at Nine Dragons

Nine Dragons Restaurant in Epcot's China pavilion is celebrating the Chinese "Year of the Monkey," with special menu items and a new prix fixe lunch menu. The lunch special is three courses for $17.98, and starts with spring rolls or pot stickers, followed by a choice of three entrees: Happily Family, with sliced chicken breast, beef and shrimp stir fry; Moo Goo Gai Pan; and General Tso's Chicken Buns Lunch Box with three steamed buns and hot-and-sour soup. Dessert is strawberry-red bean ice cream or ginger-caramel ice cream. Another addition to the menu, just for Year of the Monkey, are three steamed buns: braised pork belly served with chili aioli; sweet-and-sour, batter-fried fish buns topped with pork floss; and General Tso's Chicken buns with batter-fried chicken breast. The menu specials run through January 27 of next year. Passholder, Disney Vacation Club, Tables in Wonderland and Golden Oak discounts are accepted.
