Lao Zheng Xing

Lao Zhengxing is my favorite restaurant. The sauce is now available in small portions, which is good. The hairy crab is also delicious 😋, and the waiter's attitude is also very good 👍. In short, it is one of the restaurants I must eat when I return to Shanghai. It has one Michelin star.

It's an old restaurant, and the taste is always stable. [Taste] |Special fried shrimp^You can try it, Shanghai specialty, slightly sweet taste, and the shrimp is quite fresh. |Eight treasures spicy sauce^Must try, not spicy, the ingredients are sufficient. |Crab roe and yam rice cake^The taste is also good, the crab roe is rich, and the rice cake tastes good. [Service] The service attitude of the restaurant staff is quite good.

An old restaurant in Shanghai, the signature dishes are rich in oil and sauce, and taste very good, suitable for the taste of people like us in the Jiangnan area. The price is half, the portion is half, and there are not many varieties on the menu, but fortunately the taste is okay!

Lao Zhengxing is a century-old restaurant in Shanghai. My grandparents have been bringing us here. I know all the dishes by heart. When I was studying in the UK, I would go there every time I came back to eat fried shrimp and smoked fish. Over the years, this restaurant has even been rated as a Michelin one-star restaurant. The average cost per person is just over 100 yuan, which is really cheap.

1. Shanghai's time-honored restaurants make their own zongzi for sale every Dragon Boat Festival. Generally, there are at least four varieties (Da Fugui), five (Laobanzhai, Shen Dacheng), seven (Wang Baohe, Wang Jiasha), and eight (Xinghualou, Nanxinya) on the shelves at the same time. However, there is a very famous local restaurant in Shanghai. It is not only a century-old time-honored restaurant, but also one of the 40 intangible cultural heritage brands in Shanghai. It has been awarded one Michelin star for four consecutive years (four years since Michelin entered Shanghai). It is located at No. 556 Fuzhou Road, Lao Zhengxing Restaurant. 2. Lao Zhengxing only makes one variety of zongzi every Dragon Boat Festival - Jiangfang meat zongzi for sale. It has been made for seven or eight consecutive years. This year, the price is 12 yuan per piece, and each piece weighs five taels. Moreover, it is only sold until the Dragon Boat Festival every year. It will no longer be sold the next day. If you want to eat it, you can only wait until next year. Yesterday I asked the salesperson what to do if the zongzi you can't sell today can't be sold tomorrow? She told me that we would make as many as we sold and would not make more. We would make more after we sold out. 3. On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, I went to Lao Zhengxing to buy two Jiangfang meat dumplings to taste them. After buying them, I chatted with the Shanghai employee in the store. He told me that this dumpling was sold for 18 yuan each last year, and this year it was priced at 12 yuan each due to the epidemic. In the past few years, only this variety has been made. The reason for making Jiangfang meat dumplings is that Lao Zhengxing’s Jiangfang meat is a famous dish of the store, so inspired by this, this stuffed dumpling was developed. 4. Lao Zhengxing’s Jiangfang meat dumplings have a unique taste due to their unique skills in filling and condiments, and they can also achieve the "meat in every bite" advertised by the store. The only thing missing is that the lean meat is still a little hard when bitten, and the fat and skin melt in the mouth.

Came here because of its reputation. During the National Day, the queue was about 20 minutes. It is a time-honored state-owned enterprise with a first-class environment and good food. I ordered three dishes, including the eight-treasure hot sauce and fried eel shreds. The eight-treasure hot sauce has a bit of Shandong cuisine, with diced chicken, diced winter bamboo shoots, blanched peanuts and genuine Jinhua ham diced. The sauce is rich and fragrant, recommended. It is a state-owned enterprise, the service is a little slow, and the additional rice was not served after the bill was paid.
