Yang’s Fry-Dumpling in Shanghai
Yang’s is very well documented restaurant. I always pay them a visit because I can not resist their mouth watering shengjian mantou. This is the most famous fry-dumpling stall in Shanghai and has been in business for fourteen years. They have two stalls on Wujiang Lu no more than twenty steps from each other. There is always a queue of impatient patrons waiting for their shengjian mantou.

Greetings from Shanghai! I’m having my first dinner at Rui Fu Yuan Restaurant. This was not my first time eating here. I tried this restaurant in early 2008 and really liked it. Business must be very good because I’m eating at the new branch just two blocks from the original location. I was able to try the original location on my first trip. There are only two locations. There are two things to take note:
- If you don’t read and speak Mandarin then don’t bother coming to this place
- Make sure you have a reservation
Rui Fu Yuan is known for their authentic Shanghainese food among the locals.
Our first dish, Jellyfish Appetizer. The dish was served at room temperature containing jellyfish heads, black vinegar, sesame oil and parsley. It was lightly salted with a defined black vinegar taste. The jellyfish had a sharp and crisp texture. Jellyfish heads sounds weird, but its a Shanghai delicacy. I liked it.
