Nanxiang Steamed Stuffed Bun - Giant Xiao Long Bao
This is a must for all Shanghai travelers - the legendary Nanxiang mantou dian produces the best xiaolong bao (Bun) in the country - one should not miss this very good taste xiaolong bao - always being imitated but never duplicated.
85 Yu Yuan Road, Shanghai, China (Yu Garden.
Nanxiangzhen has many restaurants selling mantou,but this Nanxiang Mantou Dian in Yu Yuan Bazzar is most famous because of its xiaolongbao(steam dumpling). There are three stories in the same building, the lowest with long queue is for take away and also cheaper compare to 2nd and 3rh floor. I visited twice last week at the 2nd floor before 10 am...
Jian'guo 328 Xiaoguan - Shanghai Foods
No.328 Jian Guo West Road, Xuhui District, Shanghai 200031, China (Dapuqiao)
This is the best Shanghai Cuisine that I have ever tasted in Shanghai! I just love the charming environment. They served dishes 100% MSG free!
The portion of the dishes are just good enough for a perfect meal. Not forgetting their ice tea it's the best in town! Very reasonable priced! Do make reservations/plans before arriving... the queue can be 2 hours long!
Shanghai Lost Heaven Restaurant
- Yunnan Foods
38 Gaoyou Rd (south of West Fuxing Rd), Shanghai, China (Hengshan Road)
Lost Heaven on the Bund
No.17a Yanan East Road Huangpu District, Shanghai, China (The Bund)
Tel: 021-63300967
Last time I had visited the Lost Heaven on the Bund when I was in Shanghai.
Two years later, I am revisiting Shanghai again and this time, I deliberately go to visit the one in French Concession area.
Similar to the one on the Bund, the interior design of Lost Heaven is full of folklore-inspired.
Drinks and foods here are not very expensive, which is one of the reasons keep attracting people visiting. Cuisine is stylish, contemporary and delicious. Yet at reasonable price.
Lost Heaven is still on my top list to visit when visiting Shanghai
Yang's Fried-Dumpling (Wujiang Road)
No.54 -60 Wujiang Road, Jing'an District, Shanghai, China (Nanjing West Road)
The small restaurant is located on the second floor in a mall on Wujiang road. Wujian road is just off Nanjing West road very close to the main train station there. You can either sit and eat at the restaurant, if you are lucky to get a table, or take away.
The fried dumplings are tasty and cheap. Note that these are Shanghai fried dumplings, not steamed xialongbao like the ones served for example at Din Tai Fung. Xiaolongbao means 'small steaming basket buns' while the ones served in this restaurant are mostly fried in a large type of frying pan and they are definitely bigger and meatier than xialongbao.
Definitely one of the best dumpling kinds which I've only found in Shanghai so far... These are kind of "crispy" with soup inside, a real experience in Shanghai and at very cheap price.
Shanghai Dragon Phoenix Restaurants
8F, Fairmont Peace Hotel, 20 Nanjing Road East, Shanghai 200002, China (The Bund) Tel: 021-61386880
“An amazing taste of Shanghai food”
Reviewed May 20, 2013 Located in a exclusive venue, the restaurant has en amazing scenery. The view on the river is great and we were happy to be seated on a table next to the river. Everything is up to an extremely good standard, We didn't have to wait long for the food to be ready and it was really delicious. The experience was good.
Shanghai Laolao Restaurants
No.70 Fuzhou Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai, China (The Bund) Tel: 021-63216613
Shanghai Laolao serves amazing Shaghainese food. It isn't dirty, the food comes out super quick. We had to wait about 20 minutes to actually sit down but definitely worth the wait. It is located about a block in from the bund, making it very easy to get to. The business of the place with locals is testament to how the food tasted! The menu is extensive enough that you wouldn't find something you can't eat, and it isn't by any means expensive at all.
