      I recommend Jiang Zhanggui's Old Shanghai Pork Rib Rice Cakes. They're way better than Xian De Lai's!

          The butterfly pastries at the International Hotel haven't been 25 for ages. Was this posted this year?

              For pork rib rice cakes, I recommend the little stall at the corner of Shouning Road and Renmin Road. They're only open for lunch, there's always a line, and they're a hundred times better than Xian De Lai!

                  For Shen Da Cheng, you should get the fresh, individually sold ones on Nanjing Road, not the pre-packaged boxes. They taste completely different~

                    Exactly!! The boxed ones and the fresh ones are totally different~~ The fresh ones from Nanjing Road are delicious, and they have a really short shelf life too.

                      Do you need a reservation for Yu Xing Ji?

                          I just wanted to know, do you need a COVID test to go to Shanghai now?

                                Hi! Where are these butterfly pastries located? I've been looking for ages and can't find them. Please reply!! I'm still in Shanghai.
