Wang Bao He claims to be Shanghai’s oldest restaurant with a history dating back to 1936.  This brightly lit restaurant has a traditional Chinese decor.  Its another place you should not go without reservations.  They are famous for making rice wine and cooking Shanghai’s famous hairy crab.  Crab dominates the menu, almost every dish in the menu utilizes crab as an ingredient.

I always make it a habit to have the hairy crabs when I’m in Shanghai.  The hairy crabs are smaller than our Pacific Northwest Dungeness crabs.  As you can see from the photo, they are not called hairy crab for nothing.  This delicacy is in season during September to January.  Actually, the crabs do not have much meat, but they are prized for their roe.
