There are always a restaurant that you visit and the taste and flavours of it reminds you of a dish your grandma used to make when you were small. This is the exact feeling I get when I go to Lao Shang Hai Restaurant. But instead of a single dish, all of them remind me of what my grandma used to make.The drunken goose was so tender and served lukewarm.The deep fried river shrimp was in the perfect bite size and the sauce was so authentic and unlike many Shanghainese restaurants nowadays cook th
The drunken goose was so tender and served lukewarm.
The deep fried river shrimp was in the perfect bite size and the sauce was so authentic and unlike many Shanghainese restaurants nowadays cook this dish with such heavy sauce.
Smoked yellow fish, perfect smoky texture and flavouring.
Fried silver carp's head with sheet jelly (with extra chilli), the sheet jelly was not a bit too chewy for my taste and the carp's head for the night was not as fresh as it used to be, but still acceptable.
Hairy crab was not at its best season, but the sauce and the green bean perfectly compensate for it.
Finally the dessert for the night was sweet osmanthus soup with rice balls. Perfect end to a perfect night.
