181. Shuchengxiangzilaochengdou Hot Pot (kongjiang)

£14Hot PotOpen Late

StevemnnnHot pot (English: Hot Pot), formerly known as "Gudong Soup", is named for the "gulp" sound made when food is put into boiling water. It is a unique Chinese delicacy with a long history and is suitable for all ages. According to research, hot pot existed in the Warring States Period, and people at that time used pottery jars as pots. By the Song Dynasty, eating hot pot was very common among the people. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Lin Hong's cookbook "Shan Jia Qing Gong" introduced eating hot pot with friends. In the Yuan Dynasty, hot pot spread to Mongolia. By the Ming and Qing Dynasties, hot pot was not only popular among the people, but also became a famous "palace dish", with game such as pheasants as ingredients.

182. 三两春(崂山路店)

No.11 of Light Bites in Shanghai

MisterZI saw a food show mentioning Sanliangchun and I learned that this restaurant near my home has been open for nearly 20 years. Despite this, I have rarely eaten in the restaurant except for take-out pan-fried dumplings. It is a very traditional Shanghai snack bar with a good environment. Every time I pass by, I see diners but it is never crowded. The restaurant does not hold activities or promotions. It closes at set times. It feels like an otherworldly existence.

吃饭了没上市I came with my sister to have afternoon tea at the highest location in Shanghai, overlooking the entire river and the Oriental Pearl Tower. The view is very good. The afternoon tea at this restaurant is quite unique. It is divided into two flavors, salty and sweet. The salty foie gras dessert has a dense texture, and the chocolate mangosteen tastes delicious. It is said that the menu will be changed in mid-September. It was cloudy this time. I will come back to check in when it is sunny.

史黛拉拉The restaurant where my family had a meal was located in a shopping mall near Binjiang. There were not too many people. It was basically a private room, and the restaurant was mainly for banquets. Mainly local dishes, the portions were OK, and the main dishes were thick and red sauce. Braised pork and beef ribs were not bad, quite traditional and authentic, and the other dishes were normal. The environment was not bad, and the service was OK.

186. Ming Jia Hui

XY_ShirleyMingjiahui, located on the 7th floor of No. 8 The Bund, Zhongshan East 2nd Road, has a very upscale location. The current price of a four-person meal at 698 is still quite cost-effective. The yellow croaker with scallion oil is very tender, and the fish and seafood soup is very delicious. It is a good choice for family gatherings, but the lobby is a bit crowded. The view from the private room is amazing.

187. NAN XING YUAN

One of the Top Fine Dining in Shanghai

£141Szechuan Cuisine

M30***87Nanxingyuan is considered the pinnacle of Sichuan cuisine in Shanghai. I finally had the chance to try it. Garlic pork, Sichuan sauce mandarin fish, Kung Pao chicken, boiled cabbage, sweet stewed pork, chopped green onion pork liver, and even green pepper shredded pork were amazing. It was a very happy meal. Of course, Master Deng's personal explanation was a big plus, and I benefited a lot from it.

188. SIYA CUISINE

£84Jiangzhe CuisineWestern restaurantHistorical architectureCourtyard

nicholas尼可I really like the environment here. The summer sun shines through the lush branches and leaves surrounded by green shade, and sprinkles on the lawn unscrupulously, forming mottled light and shadows. The fragrance of plants and flowers is fragrant. Such a beautiful garden courtyard, it is so pleasant to invite a few friends to spend time here. In terms of dishes, while retaining the traditional Ningbo cuisine, some innovations have been made. So you will taste familiar flavors and many wonderful flavors beyond imagination, such as grilled vegetables that are very similar to half-cooked pickled mustard greens. The service is really good. Whether you use a set meal or drink or not? They all provide the same service, which is completely different from another restaurant I went to not long ago. It's very comfortable, thank you for your hard work.

Calvin在路上A famous restaurant on Donghu Road, it has two floors and is not small in size. The store is warmly decorated. There are many people on weekends and you have to wait for a table. The dishes are mainly Italian, such as various pizzas, pastas, etc. You can also see the entire pizza production process on site. There are also many drinks and various wines. The pizza base is quite thin, the dough is chewy, and the various hams are authentic.
