About
This branch of one of the more highly regarded and popular Shanghai chain restaurants offers diners its signature local dishes as well as Hong Kong-style dim sum in a classy and refined setting. Unadorned glass panels, marble floors, cream-colored chairs, and muted lighting all take a back seat to the food here. You can't go wrong with much of the menu: tea-smoked duck, wine-preserved green crab, and mizhi huofang (pork and taro in candied sauce) are all house specialties that live up to their renown; the noodles with scallions and small shrimp are some of the most delicious in town; and qicai dongsun (fresh winter shoots with local greens) is something you're unlikely to get back home. Service is highly efficient.
