it's just poetic. doesn't it sound nice? that should be a good enuf explanation. but, the chinese mythical dragon is always flying about in the sky, chasing its gold ball, and you could consider that 'wandering' altho, as it is consider a god, i'm pretty sure it knows where it's going. since i don't know what your dish contains or what it looks like when they present it, i can't tell you anything further.

I had tried one of those cold/hot dishes as an appetizer with all the cold meat decorated into the shape of a dragon and all the hot meat in the shape of a phoenix like some yin and yang plate. I had also been to a few common dragon (loong) and phoenix (forng) chinese restaurants. Its just a creative and auspicious name commonly used to symbolize happiness and prosperity for restaurants' names or even chinese dishes to depict or symbolize a dish for weddings, Chinese New Year, auspicious celebrations etc. You need to describe your dish in more details *

The owner is probably wandering if the dish would eventually end up in someones stomach.
Dragon could be many things on a chinese menu. From snake, eel, large garouper fish, sea dragon (looks like a sea horse) to just about anything that is shaped like a long strip.
