SHANGHAI CLASSICAL RESTAURANT

The water-free and oil-free Eight Treasure Duck is so delicious that you can't stop eating it. Eight Treasure Duck contains duck meat, salted egg yolk, chestnuts, lotus seeds, glutinous rice and other ingredients. It feels like a duck meat version of "big zongzi".

I think China has a rich variety of food, such as traditional Shanghainese dishes, Sichuan cuisine, Cantonese dim sum, etc., old Beijing noodles with soybean paste, Xinjiang pilaf, roujiamo and oil-splashed noodles from Xi'an, Shaanxi, spicy hot pot from Chongqing, Sichuan, etc. Of course, you have to come to Inner Mongolia to try our mutton and beef.

Very good Shanghainese cuisine, the sweet and sour carp is authentic, sweet and crispy, a very delicious dish. Since it is an old restaurant, the service is OK and there are many people.

My relatives in Shanghai said they must bring it to try. It is a relatively authentic local dish. It is the only one in Shanghai. It is in the Yuyuan tourist area and is very easy to find. The decoration is very nostalgic. The decoration has the feeling of old Shanghai. The interior of the private room is nostalgic and very distinctive. It is also clean and tidy. Overall, it is good. For tourists, it is worth coming. ... [Drunken Chicken] Drunken chicken has a little bit of wine flavor, but the wine flavor is not too strong. The chicken is just the right toughness. I usually have no interest in this kind of cold dishes like saliva chicken. This drunken chicken tastes really good, and the wine flavor is a little sweet. It is worth a try. [Fried shrimp + crystal shrimp] Double combination, you can try two at a time. Fried shrimp, the shrimp is relatively small, fried more crispy, the taste is a bit like the Cantonese Wei Ji shrimp, the taste is not bad. The taste of crystal shrimp is lighter, and it will be served with vinegar, but the shrimp itself is not very fresh. It is probably frozen shrimp. It is ordinary and can be eaten or not. [Eel shreds] For me, it is a bit greasy, sticky, not salty or light, just ordinary. 【Fresh bamboo shoots】 It was the first time I ate this kind of vegetable. The taste was a bit like wolfberry leaves, but it was a little thinner than wolfberry leaves. It felt like it was completely soaked in oil. Although it was delicious, I didn't dare to eat too much because there was really a lot of oil. The taste of fresh bamboo shoots was pretty good. In general, it was very special. I recommend it! 【Babao Chili Sauce】 I thought it tasted similar to Kung Pao Chicken, but it didn't taste very special. It was a bit like a flower roll. It was not very fragrant when eaten with a sandwich. It might be better to eat it with rice. It can be eaten or not. The characteristics are average. 【Squirrel Mandarin Fish】 This is a must-order. There is no doubt that it must be a classic among classics, whether in terms of shape or taste! The fish is fried crispy, and the tomato sauce is also very rich, with some pine nuts. The meat of the osmanthus fish is relatively solid and the taste is also great, so it is definitely a signature among signatures! 【Male hairy crab】 My relatives in Shanghai told me that this season is the best season to eat hairy crabs, especially male ones, which have plenty of roe. The way they cook in restaurants, the shells are also rubbed with a layer of oil, so your hands are covered with oil when you remove them, but the taste is still good, and the male ones have quite a lot of roe, which is satisfying! 【Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs】 This is also a signature dish of Shanghai. The vinegar is more sour and the sweetness is slightly weaker. In general, it is not bad. You can order it to try, but it is quite ordinary. After tasting so many special dishes at once, I felt like I had never eaten well before when I came to Shanghai. It was really satisfying. Shanghai Old Restaurant really lives up to its name, so it deserves a comprehensive five-star rating, especially for tourists. It really shows the characteristics of Shanghai cuisine, which is not too sweet, and there is only one restaurant with no branches, so it is worth a try.

The family gathering was arranged at Shanghai Old Restaurant. Needless to say, the location is right at the Old Town God Temple in Yu Garden. There are a lot of people around. Parking is not very convenient, so I suggest you take the bus to get there. Shanghai Old Restaurant serves authentic local cuisine. The dishes are all thick and red, which suits the taste of Shanghai people. Roasted mutton, fried eel shreds, fried shrimp, and eight-treasure chili sauce are all delicious and authentic. There is also a special dish: the eight-treasure duck is soft and tasty, and it is delicious. The overall dishes are very delicious. The service is also good. Private rooms must be booked several weeks in advance, and a deposit must be paid.

This restaurant is easy to find. Go to the outskirts of Chenghuang Temple scenic area, very close to Chenghuang Temple. The first time I went there was for its grandeur. The entrance was very high-end. When I got closer, I saw that the prices were affordable, and there were special dishes every day. It was also a restaurant introduced by A Bite of China, so I decided to go in and out to eat. 2⃣️ people 2⃣️ dishes over 100 yuan, the bill was very satisfactory. My mother wanted to find food in the area that night, so she went into Chenghuang Temple to find that there were many people there. The food standard was like a canteen. After repeated consideration, we went into Shanghai Old Restaurant again. Even the waiter recognized that we had been there at noon. Later, I noticed that there were locals there, but most of them were independent travelers. The satisfaction when we went downstairs swept away the fatigue of the day.

The Golden Eight Treasure Duck is so delicious that you never get tired of it. The braised river eel is a rice killer (usually a special portion is packed, which is enough to show how much you like it). Other dishes like shredded eel, fried shrimp, shrimp roe and black cucumber are also very authentic. Let me talk about the grass head circle separately. When I was a child, I usually didn't touch it, but the male elders were very fond of this dish, so they ordered it every time. Now I like it too.

Shanghai Old Restaurant is located near Chenghuang Temple. It has a very advantageous location. It serves authentic Shanghainese cuisine. It is very popular and has many seats. When I went in at around 11 o'clock, there were not many people. After I ordered the dishes, the seats were full a while later. When I left after eating, I saw many people queuing up. I ordered fried pork, crab meat tofu, grass head circle, and osmanthus cake. Fried pork is the best. It smells good and tastes fresh, juicy and sweet without being greasy. Osmanthus cake is sweet, sticky, soft and delicious. Grass head circle, the large intestine is very tender, but the grass head is too oily. Crab meat tofu is delicious.
