It appears that China Dragon<\/i> restaurant on the corner of Farrow Road and Beltline Boulevard is gone. When I took these pictures, it was after the return date stated on the vacation sign, but the phone had not been disconnected, so I held off posting. Now the phone is cut off and when I drove by this evening, there were a couple of cars there with people who seemed to be looking at the property (though there is no \"For Sale\" sign).<\/p>\n

I never ate at China Dragon<\/i> but the building has been there forever, and stuck in my mind as a kid because of the rocky exterior. Since we went down that way so seldom, I had a poor mental model in my mind of exactly where<\/i> it was, and would always be surprised when I saw it again.<\/p>\n

The building design is clearly the same as this much restauranted building on Decker Boulevard<\/a>, so going by the comments there, it was probably originally a Popeye's Chicken<\/i>.<\/p>\n
