8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA Shanghai

For the main course, I indulged in the Charred M9 Denver cut beef, a testament to the restaurant's commitment to quality and sustainability by primarily sourcing beef from Uruguay, where farming methods allow cattle to roam freely. This exceptional beef showcased a perfect balance of tenderness and bold flavors, expertly prepared to perfection. It was accompanied by an artichoke in three distinct textures: the heart of the artichoke at the base, a creamy artichoke blend in the middle, and crisp young leaves delicately deep-fried on top. This harmonious blend of flavors and textures resulted in a truly remarkable and memorable dish. Pairing it with a tannic Piedmont wine, Accornero Bricco del Bosco 2013, enhanced the experience, with notes of red cherry, raspberry, strawberry jam, and sweet spices, culminating in impeccable balance and outstanding length. Dessert arrived in the form of pumpkin cloves gelato with chestnut flower cream, red plum gel, and pumpkin seed crumble. This sweet creation offered delicate flavors with intriguing clove notes that lingered. To conclude this extraordinary meal, I enjoyed a warm Illy espresso, accompanied by a selection of three Petit fours: mini macaroons with berry coulis, a fake pearl with Sicilian pistachio and raspberry insert, and a delightful chocolate praline with Tonka bean. Overall, my experience at Otto e Mezzo Bombana was nothing short of fantastic. With its Two Michelin stars, this restaurant offers a culinary journey that combines Italian excellence with the enchantment of Shanghai's historical Rock Bund. My bill of 1700RMB was a testament to the quality and luxury that Otto e Mezzo Bombana delivers. It's a dining experience I won't soon forget.

I'm a regular at Mi Er, so I went there during the restaurant week. I ordered the lunch menu, which includes appetizers, pasta, main course, and dessert. I also ordered two glasses of wine and a risotto. I don't know why, but I've had the three-course lunch many times before, and usually I'm full with the bread or snacks. This time I ordered risotto and an extra bread, but I still didn't feel full, which was strange. The main course m7 steak is the highlight of the entire menu. The spiciness of mustard seeds, the interesting crunch when bitten, the rich sauce, the perfect charring of the beef skin, and the completely tender interior make it a great main course. The other main course is sea bream, which is more ordinary. The sweetness of the lettuce sauce highlights the freshness of the fish, and a little bit of radish is a good seasoning. I don't understand the function of the caviar in the appetizer. It is said to have a smoky flavor, but I didn't taste it at all. But horse mackerel, pickled cucumbers and radishes, paired with the freshness of kalman, are already very suitable as appetizers in 40-degree Shanghai. I ordered the risotto alone, which was standard but well-made. The delicious taste of porcini mushrooms filled the mouth, and some fresh and chewy lobsters were added. There was nothing to complain about. Before the appetizer, a small cheese foam was also provided, paired with a tomato-flavored base. Amazing. At this time, his special bread was served, paired with three kinds of olive oil. As expected, the limited friends' comments were very accurate, and this is the difference that can be tasted with a mouth. The tomato smoothie for dessert was eye-catching, and it seemed that everything related to tomatoes was delicious. It was like eating a freshly picked tomato that was ripe and just frozen in the middle of summer. It was also paired with almond and jam-flavored condiments. The last three small desserts, the green chocolate was amazing. Some spices were added very creatively, probably lemongrass basil, but I didn't taste it. The spice flavor lasted only for a short time, but the impact was good. Finally, let's talk about the pasta. The taste of parsley completely covered all the flavors. The wheat aroma of the handmade pasta and the seafood taste of the small squid were all gone... The sommelier gave a good review and the wine recommendation was great. It was the flavor I liked at the moment. Overall it was okay. But I may not come again. I felt a little hungry for some reason.

The Emerald Western Restaurant is located in Disney Town near the intersection of Shendi West Road and Chuannanfeng Road in Chuansha Town, Pudong New District, Shanghai, People's Republic of China. The restaurant focuses on Western-style dining as its business philosophy and features a beautiful environment with birdsong and flowers, which makes diners who come to taste and check in full praise!

The 2017 Michelin Guide two-star restaurant is located on the bank of the Huangpu River. From the window, you can see the bustling scenery of Lujiazui in Pudong. The exquisitely presented dishes are amazing from the appetizers. The cat ear pasta is a dish that impressed me the most. I like the taste of this pasta, and it is especially delicious with blue dragon and seafood sauce. I also like the dessert ice cream, which has a rich taste, and is sweet but not greasy, and is quite refreshing. It's a very good experience.

I went here a long time ago. My Italian friend and a foodie highly recommended this Italian restaurant. I like the ravioli and steak. The Italian ham with cherries is very good. The small dessert plate is very cute. My friend likes the tiramisu very much. I don’t like coffee-flavored food so I won’t comment on it~ The environment is great and the service is also very good. I will try the lobster noodles later.

8 1/2, the most authentic Italian food in Shanghai! At the same time, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery at the Bund [strong] The Sunday Brunch here is very cost-effective. If you like Italian food, you must try it!

Michelin is a gimmick... To be honest, Michelin is just a gimmick. The price of the dishes is not cost-effective. However, if you talk about the added value, it is worth it. Appetizers are given to each table, and there is also a plate of milk foam that I can't name? ? ? Bread can be refilled unlimitedly, of course you have to eat it, and then, one plate of noodles per person, it cost 700+, to be honest, it's still painful. Although the service looks good, to be honest, there is no free tea, which is not friendly at all. After all, working class people like me still want to experience the service environment and dishes of Michelin! I won't comment on the noodles. Everyone has their own taste and preference, but at least after eating it, the ingredients are very fresh!
