73. LE KAI SA BI SA DA YUE CHENG DIAN

JPY1494Western-style

谁用我的昵称了After the cold winter of the catering industry, all restaurants are vigorously promoting discounts, and Le Caesar, located on the basement floor of Joy City, is no exception. The newly launched one-person meal set is very cost-effective. Although the durian pizza is not big, it tastes very good and does not have a strong durian taste. Add two grilled chicken wings as a side dish, and it is a perfect meal for one person.

In terms of dishes, the restaurant uses fresh and healthy ingredients and insists on cooking authentic local dishes, which are healthy and natural. Specially recommend the restaurant's secret smoked fish and braised pork: [Taste] Local signature smoked pomfret Smoked fish is a traditional local dish suitable for all ages. Unlike other restaurants that use pomfret or herring, theirs uses cod, which is more tender. The smoked fish is fried to perfection and soaked in a slightly sweet sauce, with crispy skin and tender meat. It is so delicious that you can't even spit out the fish bones. Shunji's secret braised pork For Shanghai people, braised pork is not a new dish, but braised pork made from a whole piece of ribs is rare! Shunji's secret braised pork has thick sauce, tender meat and delicious taste. The pork ribs are carefully selected with fat and lean meat. The lean meat on the bone has a tighter texture. The fat has long been stewed and the fat has long gone. From the quality of the meat to the taste of the braised meat, it is impeccable, very tasty, and melts in the mouth. One bite is a great sense of satisfaction! Girls who usually don't touch fat meat will definitely be unable to hold back and start eating! Bamboo shoots, cordyceps and chicken soup The aroma immediately hits the nose when it is served. Shunji’s selection of ingredients is extremely sophisticated. It selects old hens over three years old caught in the deep mountains of Anhui. The crisp and tender bamboo shoots from Shu are slowly stewed for six hours. Pick up a spoonful and you will see the golden luster from inside to outside and from top to bottom, with a warm and mellow taste! Shunji Pot Stickers The typical skin is thin and the filling is rich. The bottom of the pot stickers is the fried part, which is an attractive golden color. The upper part tastes soft and chewy, the bottom is crispy, and the filling is delicious. Shunji Fried King This dish is particularly refreshing, with palm treasures, cashews, vegetables, etc.! It is very suitable for everyone to chat and eat! [Service] In addition, the restaurant provides intimate private customization services.

eastplayAlthough it was a meal I had before, I was very impressed, not only because it was delicious, but also because it was innovative and good-looking. [Taste] |Black Truffle Hot Spring Egg^I recommend trying it. The egg tastes great, and paired with black truffles, it's delicious. |Wellington Foie Gras Steak^Recently, it's been quite popular, and many restaurants have introduced Wellington. In addition to steak, this restaurant also adds foie gras, which is even more delicious.

2025 Asia 100 – Light Bites

蓓家温暖It’s really not easy to find a place to eat on the Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street where land is at a premium and avoid the long queues. Shanghai Xiaolong Steamed Buns, a friend said, is a "Shanghai dialect" that can be tasted, and it is also a "living" century-old intangible cultural heritage. Today, I took my family to try the "Crab Meat Buns with Crab Juice" and I was so greedy. Environment: The decoration inside the Chansanchi store in People's Square is comfortable and warm, and the combination of fashion and tradition presents a new vitality. Several masters of Ming Dynasty operate the dumplings by hand and steam the dumplings one by one. After they are all formed, put them in the steamer and steam them. You only need to wait for 8 minutes to have hot steamed buns. Serve: When it comes to meals, you have to queue up to get your number and wait for a table. The store manager at the door has a humble and friendly attitude. She carefully observes the table turnover rate, so under her guidance, the diners who come and go sit and wait in an orderly manner, and they can enter the store within a quarter of an hour. Seated. The waiters in the store are warm and considerate, pouring red date and ginger tea, delivering food in a timely manner and removing empty steamers. They constantly shuttle around the store to serve diners, always greeting them with a smile, which makes people feel very comfortable. [Wakame] is green in color and tastes sour, sweet, appetizing and extremely crunchy. [Gluttonous Fried Pork Chop] Fried, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, juicy on the inside, full of flavor when chewed, dipped in Taikang spicy soy sauce, fragrant and fresh. [Fresh Pork Xiao Long Bao] Fresh meat is the most traditional. The transparent skin wraps a pool of soup and takes a sip. The slightly sweet soup and fresh meat filling are tender and delicious. [Crab Meat Xiaolongbao] The crabmeal soup dumplings have thin skin and juicy texture, and each one is heavy. Take a sip and the soup with crab roe is extremely delicious. [Gansanchi Signature Crab Paste Xiao Long Bao] After eating the crab paste soup dumplings, I was disappointed that there was no large piece of crab paste in it. Maybe it was because of the wrong season, so I only had crab meat. [Crab Meal Soup with Rice] A small casserole is brought to the table with bubbles. Large pieces of crab roe are paired with rice with distinct rice grains. There are also shrimps, squid, sea cucumber particles, and a few fresh and green chicken feathers as the finishing touch. Drink it The rich crab meat soup is full of color, flavor and satiety. The Greedy Crab Rice Series is a classic snack from old Shanghai. It inherits the classic recipes of old Shanghai, and at the same time incorporates some new ideas with ingenuity. The ever-changing small cages and the same preference, Ala Shanghai Mi Tao is delicious!
