The xiangsuji, a dish of curiously squashed chicken features golden skin, tender strips of tear-away meat, and a rich garlic and dark soy flavour is something that we come back for again and again. 続きを読む
At 60RMB this is one of the cheapest non-sports centre outdoor swimming pools. There isn’t really a place to change except toilets, but it is clean and well maintained. You can purchase swimming caps. 続きを読む
Many of the office workers dining at this packed alleyway Shanghainese lunch spot are so loyal that they rarely miss a day’s meal here. Luroufan (pork belly rice) is the top dish (28RMB). 続きを読む
Hai Pai’s Sunday offerings happily sidestep clichés in favour of a split menu combining fresh, nouveau French-bistro dishes and riffled Chinese favourites. Finish off with a freshly baked dessert. 続きを読む
CHAR’s simple brunch (488RMB/set menu) features must-tries such as the tender grass-fed fillet steak served with béarnaise sauce or the juicier sirloin. End on a sweet note with the dessert sampler. 続きを読む
Michelin-trained chef Michael Wendling’s menu includes small but perfectly formed French brunch dishes. It’s not cheap, but it is great value and a gem among the gluttonous brunches out there. 続きを読む
Admission is 50RMB. Once you've finished touring the museum itself, head out onto the beautiful adjacent Zhoushan Lu, one of the few places left in town where you'll find people playing carrom. 続きを読む
A bewildering array of smoking paraphernalia is spread over three floors, though there's no mention of the fact that China is a world leader in smoking-related deaths. Admission is free. 続きを読む
The seating to the right of the entrance provides cosy spots in a friendly atmosphere. Go on a Friday or Saturday (from 10.30pm) for one of our favourite cover bands in the city, The Sultans of Swing. 続きを読む
Le Creme Milano is something of a Shanghai gelato staple, and with good reason. Their Italian ice cream (from 25RMB) in classic flavours such as vanilla, chocolate and an array of fruits, is superior. 続きを読む
La Perla doesn’t stray far from traditional flavours – vanilla, chocolate, mint and choc chip – but their ice cream is delicious. Our favourite is the intensely-fruity blackcurrant (18RMB/scoop). 続きを読む
This beautiful park (entry 15RMB) offers different sized pits (50-120RMB/2 hours) to rent with wood (5RMB) and charcoal (20RMB) available. The pits are popular when the sun’s out, so book ahead. 続きを読む
Cuivre's skin-on frites (42RMB) are more akin to thickish chips than the traditional thin and crispy French fry, but they have outstanding flavour and are pleasantly free of pools of grease 続きを読む
Boutique Hotel Indigo has a stunning view from south of The Bund. The best views at the hotel come at CHAR, a gorgeous steakhouse, with a bar that serves decent cocktails. 続きを読む
The super-slick Park Hyatt is the highest hotel in town, so the views are a bit special. You can see the panorama from the infinity pool on the 85th floor, or from the excellent restaurants and bars. 続きを読む
The draw here, beside the laidback vibe and roaming yellow Labrador, is the quality coffee, with Americanos (30RMB) pulled by baristas who will adjust the flavour and blend according to your taste. 続きを読む
This is possibly the most blissfully chilled-out spot in town (58RMB/baths only). Though it doesn’t have many activities, it has a community feel, great service, and an airy chillout area. 続きを読む
The pizzas here don’t quite justify the price. The margherita (100RMB) is authentic-looking, with basil leaves, cherry tomatoes and mozzarella on thin crust, but gets a little runny toward the middle. 続きを読む
Presenting works from both emerging Chinese artists and established international names, MD aims to focus on new media and art forms, and hosts creative talks and screenings. Admission is free. 続きを読む
Exhibitions usually feature big name international artists, including Alex Katz, Richard Long and Louise Bourgeois. They simultaneously scout for new local talents. Admission is free. 続きを読む
While the cocktail list here is average, the food is better. From a decent list of bar snacks, we recommend the mussels with herb sauce (68RMB) and the cold meats platter (78RMB). 続きを読む
The use of fresh fruit and herbs such as mint and basil, grown onsite, sets the menu apart here. Try the the ‘Madang’ (80RMB) featuring Cointreau, Campari, gin and grapefruit juice. 続きを読む
The pizza arrabiata (98RMB) balances its ingredients atop a Roma-style crust with a spicy tomato and chilli sauce, and is offset by circles of mozzarella and deliciously fresh-tasting cherry tomatoes. 続きを読む
Of Ben Jia’s unbeatable banchan (free cold appetisers), the fresh salad greens with potatoes is the tastiest. Don’t skip the marinated beef ribs (80RMB) or jap chae (50RMB), sauteed in a sweet sauce. 続きを読む
This stylish cocktail bar does the classics well. The coolly refreshing Lynchburg lemonade (60RMB) and zingy Moscow mule (60RMB) are well-judged. 続きを読む
This is an antique-filled cozy cafe with casual French fare. Don't leave without trying the star anise duck (165RMB) or the Signature Fleure Salad (45RMB). 続きを読む
The humble cabbage is transported to gourmet status with loads of greasy, finger-licking smoked pork . The cabbage is served in a little wok over a flame, it continues to cook with bacon-y aroma. 続きを読む
Fried potato strips (12RMB) are a must try. Threads of potato, fried to a perfectly crispy golden brown, are mixed with bits of fresh coriander & slivers of dried chilli, in a Tower of Pisa-like pile. 続きを読む
