Dragonfly Noodle
In need of a fresh start after the pandemic, chef Edwin Zoe rebranded his Boulder eatery Chimera as Dragonfly Noodle in 2022, adding a second location on Denver's 16th Street Mall later that year. This sister concept to his casual Chinese restaurant, Zoe Ma Ma, boasts noodle dishes that span Asia, from Japan to Singapore to Vietnam to Taiwan. Zoe's ramen noodles are still made in-house — a real rarity in Colorado — and deeply flavored broths illustrate a dedication to traditional ingredients and methods, with just enough experimentation to set the eatery apart.
