LE COMPTOIR DE PIERRE GAGNAIRE

I called to make an appointment one day in advance, and they said I could only come at 12:30 noon. There were still quite a few customers when I arrived. The environment is really good. There is a row of western restaurants on the street in an old-style villa. The set meal is 398, with three courses. I think the bread before the meal is good, it is French bread, with butter, because I dare not eat raw. I chose sea bream slices for the appetizer, the dish was exquisitely presented. I was a little uncomfortable at first, the cream was a little sour, but I got used to it later. The portion is quite large and a little greasy. I chose veal with Indian butter rice for the main course, which felt like cream of mushroom soup. I liked the baked apple dessert very much. The coffee was too small a cup, not enough.

Capella Shanghai Jianyeli Opened in 2017 Hengshan Road | No. 480 Jianguo West Road, Jianyeli 550 meters from Zhaojiabang Road subway station, about 8 minutes walk I like the rooftop terrace, which reminds me of the summer when I was a child. Such a house is very suitable for a small gathering with a few friends. There is no sense of distance in the hotel, and it feels comfortable and intimate at home

Recommended restaurant by Gourmet Forest: The Lucky Dinner for the Year of the Ox by Le Comptoir de Pierre Gagnaire. Located in a Shikumen building in the city center, it is quiet and retro. It is okay to splurge occasionally! It is expensive, but there are no disadvantages. It is absolutely high-end. The dishes are also quite exquisite. Super good!

Having said the characteristics of Jianyeli, Capella's management itself also has its own temperament. Two things you can't miss: Capella's library and Auriga Spa. Auriga Spa fully considers the impact of different lunar cycles on people's bodies and emotions to design treatments. Capella Library, a collection of various Chinese and European art and literary works. I accidentally read the text describing the Shikumen group. When the oriental elements and the western lifestyle are infiltrated, it is like a piece of music interwoven with multiple melodies and voices, and the old Shanghai style slowly flows between the lines.

Capella Shanghai | A Hotel That Never Fails, a Timeless Classic. "Capella" is the largest star in the constellation Auriga in the northern hemisphere, and the sixth brightest star in the sky. Strolling through the hotel feels like stepping back into 1930s Shanghai, with its Shikumen architecture built by the French in that era. Yet, a turn of the head can transport you to a bustling European town.
