“As avid foodies, we felt compelled to introduce Huntsville to culinary concepts typically reserved for larger cities,” said Hasan, co-founder of HX Brands. “Our latest concept, Dragon Alley, promises to bring vibrant flavors and energy straight to our district’s dining experience, cooking up something fresh and unique that everyone can enjoy at an affordable price point.”
Dragon Alley’s culinary team, led by the highly experienced chef Chao Fang, ensures the delivery of top-notch Asian cuisine. Beyond exceptional dining, Dragon Alley aims to transport customers to 1990s Hong Kong with its colorful ambiance, characterized by neon lights, colorful artwork, artisanal wooden tables and unique accent pieces.
Outdoor dining and a stage for local performers will round out the enviable dining experience.
Dragon Alley will be located at 1030 Mid City Dr, Huntsville, AL 35806, replacing the national gourmet burger chain, Wahlburgers. Alongside the debut of Dragon Alley, MidCity District is eager to maintain its commitment to elevating local businesses and introducing novel dining experiences to satisfy the hunger of Huntsville’s residents, with other unique concepts in development.
“The mission and heartbeat of MidCity is to discover, introduce and celebrate all of the creativity and talent our city has to offer,” said Max Grelier, co-founder of RCP Companies and developer of MidCity District. “In order for Huntsville to compete with larger markets for workforce, we need to elevate our food scene as well. At MidCity, we are actively engaged in discussions with talented chefs from surrounding markets, aiming for Huntsville to be known as a city that over-indexes on culinary experiences for its size.”
