91. Lao Zheng Xing

No.7 of Local Restaurants in Shanghai

AU$31Shanghai CuisineTime-honored Brand

M29***40Lao Zhengxing is my favorite restaurant. The sauce is now available in small portions, which is good. The hairy crab is also delicious 😋, and the waiter's attitude is also very good 👍. In short, it is one of the restaurants I must eat when I return to Shanghai. It has one Michelin star.

llwwchenVery nice environment, good taste, but I don't eat much western food. Here on the Bund, the environment is tall and the original building maintenance is preserved. It's also a good place to take pictures.

食神牛It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten at Green Wave Restaurant and I suddenly wanted to feel nostalgic. There was a slight queue at the door before 11 o'clock at noon. I entered on time at 11 o'clock and was arranged to be seated on the second floor. Two people sat at a table for six. The hotel is a three-story building imitating the Ming and Qing dynasties, with blue tiles, red balustrades, and raised cornices. You can see the Jiuqu Bridge and the Lake Pavilion from the window. The store is decorated in an antique style, and the private rooms and lobby all have the traditional charm of the Chinese nation. The reception was very warm, they poured hot water and brought menus. The service attitude was kind, meticulous, timely and thoughtful. The dishes are characterized by being eclectic and drawing on the strengths of others. Lubolang's dim sum is also well-known in Shanghai. Eyebrow cakes, shredded radish cakes, jujube cakes, mushroom vegetable buns, osmanthus pulled cakes, etc. are famous for their small size, color, flavor and shape. The specialty crispy black cod 108 yuan is rich in color, salty and sweet, and the fish meat is crispy but not crispy, with a slight thorn. Green Wave Gallery's Sixi Zao is a combination of edamame, river shrimp, duck tongue and abalone for NT$158. The texture is tender and delicate, and the marinade is fresh and fragrant. The Colorful Jiugongge by Skilled Hands costs NT$168. It is very exquisitely made and has a lifelike shape with bright colors, rich fillings and delicious taste. The stir-fried hand-peeled river shrimps cost NT$278. The shrimps were embellished with fish roe and were tender and smooth. The taste was light and fresh. Some of the shrimp shells were not peeled off, which affected the quality. Jiuqu Crispy Eel 138 yuan The shredded eel is deep-fried and crispy, with a rich, sour, salty and slightly sweet taste. Jiangnan three shrimp lion head is 118 yuan. The shrimp roe is lightly sprinkled with shrimp oil to make a sauce. The shrimp paste is wrapped in lettuce and mixed with minced meat. It is crispy and tender. However, the minced meat is minced by a machine and does not taste as good as hand-chopped meat. Braised pigeon eggs with scallops, matsutake mushrooms, NT$68, the soup is refreshing and fresh, the matsutake mushrooms and bamboo fungus are fragrant and soft, and the pigeon eggs are soft and tender. Tianrun Dahongpao costs 188 yuan for a pot of tea with a rich, mellow color and rich aroma. It deserves to be called a well-established local restaurant. The food tastes good and the ingredients are of good quality. The environment and service are also very comfortable. However, the details of some dishes need to be improved.

pan***heI visited this restaurant again and it was still quite crowded. The sausages were short and compact, with a chewy texture; the steak was the highlight this time, and it was a bit too much for three people; the other dishes were OK, and the garlic bread was fragrant.

野生的皮皮卡A restaurant with a great environment [Deyi] Imported on the Jinling East Road side, take the elevator to the 3rd floor and then walk down the stairs~ Maybe it’s because it’s a historical protected building and the structure cannot be changed. You can see the Oriental Pearl Tower next to the dining table~ | Braised Herb Lamb Tenderloin^ The lamb is of great quality, fresh and tender, fat and lean, and it is marinated with salt in advance so it is very tasty~ The sauce at the bottom is also the finishing touch. You can taste mashed potatoes, butter, cheese and a little black pepper~ The taste is well balanced when mixed with the vegetables on the side~ | Stir-fried Asparagus and Scallops with Truffle Sauce^ A very refreshing dish~ The asparagus and scallops are carefully selected, and there is fresh original juice when you bite them~ Tender and fresh~ The truffle sauce adds a rich aroma | Hazelnut Chocolate Napoleon^ Exquisite dessert~ A piece of ultra-thin crispy crust supports a piece of chocolate fortress~ The crispness is accompanied by the rich aroma of chocolate, which is very Italian dessert-like, and the bottom is covered with hazelnut chocolate sauce~

CAT 卡特先生Who invited the general on the 6th floor? He is hungry, and his eating is funny! He is afraid that you can see through him, and he is so full that he feels uncomfortable! I have to admit that I was too aggressive on the 6th floor, and I didn't know what I could do! But I really saw the world. Pizza can be eaten like this! Caviar can be used to wrap everything! But I have to praise the pizza of LAGO on the 6th floor, it's amazing. I have never eaten such a rich pizza. We all know that the fermentation process of the crust will affect the taste of the pizza. Long fermentation will make the pizza taste soft and chewy, with fluffy curling and a more amazing air feeling. I heard my friend next to me constantly praising his stove, and I have to admit that the hardware is the key! The decoration in the luxury hotel is different! The colors are solemn and steady, and the temperament is restrained and elegant. It is definitely the "old money style" that everyone often talks about nowadays! The oil paintings and installation art that can be seen everywhere all reveal the precious feeling of "only viewing from a distance, please do not touch"! Let alone touching it, I just ate so much that I feel it is difficult to move my feet! The Chinese restaurant in the hotel is always the interest of foodies. The "Jiafu No. 1" restaurant is located in the side building of the main building of the hotel. It is an independent, five-story building with a century-old history. The decoration here is very Shanghai style, and the century-old historical relics can be seen everywhere. The atmosphere here is very magical! This is a restaurant specializing in Shanghai local cuisine. "It's dinner time, the private room is ready"! I felt nervous when I heard it. I was still full! [Covering my face] Another alpaca galloped past me in my heart! I regretted my recklessness on the 6th floor again! I pretended to be calm and took a sip of hot tea, and said calmly, "Serve the dishes." In a strange scene, familiar ingredients appeared again. But unlike before, this time it was a wonderful expression of "Kaluga" caviar and Chinese food. On the Internet, foie gras, truffles, and caviar are highly praised by netizens as the three major delicacies in the world. But in recent years, caviar has also grabbed the limelight in the domestic catering market. It can be seen everywhere at exquisite dinners. It is said that my country is now the world's largest producer of caviar. But in the integration and performance of Chinese food, it is still only an external force to support the value port. The chef's product of "Jiafu No. 1" tonight changed my cognition. In the dishes served one by one, "caviar can be seen everywhere, and the years change cleverly." The fishy and creamy taste of caviar, as well as the hint of nuttiness. All have been fully understood by the chefs in detail. The design of each dish is specially made to make room for caviar. Try to make them blend as much as possible and achieve a perfect presentation in taste. There are not many dishes tonight, but each one is enough to impress you. So tonight's dishes are absolutely resistant to "caviar" Chinese banquets. The lion means Alaska, its home on the other side of the ocean. The location is good on the Suzhou River, looking at Pudong and looking at home. Today's theme is Kaluga, and the dishes are novel and creative. I ate at two restaurants here in one day. I'll have to stay at Bulgari next time.
