While The District’s gay and lesbian community celebrates Tuesday’s baby step towards same-sex marriage, Silver Springers can take comfort in knowing there’s a Drag City in Fenton Village.

But the only T here is steeped in hot water and scented with jasmine.

Local shutterbug Spoffy snapped this pic outside Sligo Avenue’s Dragon City Chinese restaurant last weekend using an iPhone, then posted it on Flickr with this message: “Kinda hoping they never fix this.”

“The sign’s been like that for at least a month, although it’s not always turned on,” Spoffy later told The Penguin via email. “Maybe the restaurant likes it that way?”

What’s not to like?

    I just drove by this for the first time at night today and did a double take. Thanks for helping me to figure it out. I was pretty sure my eyes were deceiving me somehow.

    WIth al the urban planning going on, I thought they forgot to include a good drag club. With this and wine at the farmers market things are really shaping up for Silver Spring!

  6. Dude, that would be sooooooooo awesome if downtown Silver Spring had a drag review or other cabaret show. You know, a little entertainment in the entertainment district.
