#favouriteitinerary Shanghai has Siji Minfu branches, and we chose to visit the one in Beiwaitan District. It was my first time trying Peking duck, and it was really delicious! We ordered a half of roast duck for the three of us to share. The server taught us a few ways to eat Peking Duck. For example, wrapping the duck in a spring roll wrapper with some condiments, or dipping the crispy duck skin in sugar and eating it directly. One of the dishes we tried was grilled lamb with scallions, which was amazing. The pea shoots and lion's head meatball soup were fresh and light, we also first time eat the Chinese Zhajiangmian (noodles with soybean paste) They also served complimentary duck soup, winter jujubes, and pea cake. It was my first time trying winter jujubes, and they were super refreshing! A nice experience!

There are two branches, one in North Bund and one in Joy City, Jing'an. I usually take a number at both branches and eat at whichever one is ready first. The queue at the Joy City branch is really long, so you need to be patient. 🕰️ As for the dishes, roast duck is a must-order, and one portion is just right for two people. The Beile roast meat, cold bean sprouts, and deep-fried meatballs are all pretty good. The Beijing-style tripe and lamb chops are sometimes inconsistent, but overall they are okay. The dim sum platter is quite authentic and worth a try. 🥟 The pre-meal fruit is very fresh and different every time. 🍉
