Shanghai-style Cuisine

江浙菜

I went to a Shanghai-style restaurant, Modern Shanghai, at the United Hotel today, and it is absolutely fantastic.

We had dry-fried bamboo shoots with preserved greens and grilled fish with scallions for starters. I especially like the dry-fried bamboo as the wok hei is very rich and the layers of taste are excellent. We also had the pineapple beef brisket casserole, which tasted spot-on. The famous Donpo-style slow-braised pork belly is so tasty. It is melting right to your mouth. We also had the Shanghai-style stir-fried glutinous rice cakes with salted mustard greens. Of course, the chrysanthemum-shaped tofu soup is a piece of art and very delicious.

Thank you Howard for giving me this so pretty gift. I love it. It is always great to hang out with you.

今天方方與同學來了北馥樓吃江浙菜。這家剛選上2025台灣米其林指南新入選餐廳果然沒有讓人失望。每一道都好好吃。謝謝好同學Howard帶我來吃飯，也特別喜歡你帶給我的中秋節禮盒，超美。

先吃了老雪菜乾煸鮮筍以及蔥燒鯽魚當前菜，再來了一鍋砂鍋菠蘿牛腩煲以及招牌菜東坡肉，還有雪菜肉絲炒年糕以及最後功夫菜菊花豆腐盅。我特別喜歡乾煸鮮筍的作法，鍋氣真香透了。東坡肉真是入口即化，非常優秀。

也推薦給你。#VFangStyle
