Maybe it’s a little bit hard for customers to find this stylish Shanghainese restaurant, but the super menu will make you feel the search is worth. Give the shrimp balls, lemon chicken and crispy duck a try.

Jesse
Now there are a chain of “new” Jesse restaurants-Xin Jishi-in all conrners of Shanghai, but the original is still the best. You won’t forget the amazing taste of braised pork shoulder, a braise fish head covered in fried spring onions here. Besides, highly recommend the dish called “hongshao rou” here, which is fabulous in my opinion.
