Yeah, the costumes looked to be pretty high quality. The eyes blinked, mouths opened and tails wagged. Sometimes the "dragoneer" in front would jump up on the legs of the crouching dragoneer in the back, acrobat-style, and make a vertical dragon about 11 feet tall. They even did this in the bar, which was kinda scary.

They started their performance in the covered valet/entrance area outside with firecrackers, then through the bar, then all throughout the restaurant and back through the bar. I'm sure some dining geezers in the main room were less than thrilled with the very loud drum & cymbals accompaniment.
