✅ Dingxi Road

  1. Huxi Old Alley (沪西老弄堂): Clam and pork liver noodles receive high praise.
  2. Changfa Catering (长发餐饮): The pork tenderloin is incredibly solid—only ¥8 per skewer.
  3. Hongkou Rice Cakes (虹口糕团): You can get a “family feast” for just ¥8. The rice cakes with fried dough sticks are a must-try!

✅ Jing’an Temple

  1. Taiqiong Fermented Vinegar Pot (太琼糟粕醋): The tangy and spicy broth is absolutely lovable. Though it’s a Hainan specialty, it’s really tasty and comes in large portions, with fresh seafood.
  2. Xian De Lai (鲜得来): The ribs with rice cakes are delicious and reasonably priced.
  3. Grandma’s Flavor (奶奶的味道): Authentic Shanghai-style cuisine. Highly recommend the sweet and sour ribs and sweet and sour pork strips.
