Features: Shanghai cuisine is like the people of Shanghai—it becomes more exquisite in the finer details. Therefore, the most noteworthy aspects of Shanghai cuisine are undoubtedly its small dishes, such as cold salads, stir-fried shrimp, and larger dishes like steamed fish and stir-fried cabbage hearts. Soups are also commonly served in small bowls, such as chive soup or duck blood soup. Enjoyed in small portions, one by one, sometimes you can even taste a hint of the Shikumen (stone gate) flavor. Regardless, those who love light and delicate flavors are sure to enjoy Shanghai cuisine.
