Some good news

Police issue update on probe into 'dine and dash incidents' across south Essex Officers attended an address in Great Wakering, near Southend, yesterday afternoon and arrested a man and a woman

We've been getting calls from concerned customers that we're closing in April! After some investigation, it would appear this was reported on Essex Live (see below). Not really sure why they would say this but I think they looked at an old posting online when we announced we were closing the Pearl Dragon Express from last year🤦‍♂️. The bigger shock was finding out we only came third 😫. Never mind we'll try our best and get the top spot next year!!
Thanks everyone, rest assured we have no plans to close in April.

The best Chinese restaurants in Essex - including one loved by Olly Murs Essex is home to several popular Chinese restaurants and takeaways perfect for Lunar New Year

***UPDATE*** Thank you to everyone who has shared info with us. We have their details and these will be passed to the police.

Not a great start to the new year, this couple visited us over the weekend and ran up a large bill then left when no one was looking. Police are aware but not much they can do unless anyone here recognises them. Please share and let us know if anyone does recognise them. Male and female.

Happy New Year to all our friends. We wish you health, happiness and prosperity for you and your family in 2024. Thank you for your support and love, we could not do what we do without you all so thank you.

Some char siu pastries and egg custard tarts to warm you up this cold Sunday!

Hi everyone, we're aware there are some issues with our phones. It appears a small number of people are not able to get through and go straight to voicemail, even though we do not have voicemail setup. BT are aware of the problem. They are working on the issue but do not have a solution yet.

PLease email us on [email protected] if you consistently get the voicemail.

Thank you for your patience.

The eagle eyed among you may have noticed the lights back on in the old Pearl Dragon Express latley. Unfortuantly, its not us and nothing to do with Pearl Dragon, but I am pleased to let you know that the unit has been taken over by some ex employees who have opened it up as a new takeaway under new management and its called New Dragon. Feel free to give them a try, you may recognise some of the faces there.

They have kept the old number of 01702 611090 and can do deliveries.

These kind gentlemen decided to drop off their rubbish to us this morning at 7am. While I would love to pay to dispose their cooking oil containers I would rather they come back and take it away. The qty would suggest they have a food business of their own? Number plate is EY08 XFB. If you know them, please ask them to come back and take their rubbish. Police have been made aware.

☀️🌴 We will be taking a short break this summer from Monday 14th August and will be back open on Sunday 20th August.

For reservations, please call the usual line! 😎

Thank you for all your kind messages since our latest post in regards to the break ins.

We have been given the same name multiple times and will be passing it over to the police.

The community supports means a lot to all of us at Pearl Dragon, Southend. 🫶🏻

We have been broken into 3 times in last few weeks. Extensive damage, property stolen and cash taken. It's hard enough as it is in this climate without this happening. Based on some feedback we believe the person is local. Please let us know if you recognise this person so we can pass to police.
